I have a 544. The 544 and the 656 are very close. The shifting is the major flaw to the 544 656 and the bigger 56 series all the way up to the 66's. I have all three and my 544 is the best shifting, with the exception of the pin falling out and sometimes getting it stuck in gear but an easy fix. I'm pretty sure the 656 has the same gear pattern.

My 1256 has that problem and jumps out of gear because of it. It also has an Mcgill valve problem which is common in that style. But they are both great tractors. Either one will do you great, if your not from the west farming a million acres. I know where there is an 856 for sale if your interested. Its in southwest Pennsylvania
