You're smart to ask first.

If you think you might ever want a loader, you need a wide front end, power steering, and live dual remote hydraulics.

For baling, you need a live, independent PTO.

Any 4 digit Oliver meets all these requirements and more but for your place a 1650 or 1655 would be perfect. Both can be had in gas or diesel. Both have a strong 3 pt. and drawbar. Hint: get one with Hydraul-Shift. That gives you 18 forward and 6 reverse speeds.

These tractors are basically bulletproof and will work like a dog all day and ask for more. Get the operator's manual and do the routine maintenance and you'll liklely never have to work on it.

Disclaimer: I'm biased. I have a 1650G and would not trade it for 10 of anything else.
