lmccoy: I can't understand all this concern for hills, round baler and bale don't weigh more than 5,000Lbs. and any 50 hp tractor with enough ballast will handle that on the steepest hills.
There are some round balers that seem to require a lot of hp. Best to avoid those as they are just an expensive way to make hay. Back in 1976 I bought a new IH 5x6 baler, and I found 560 or 656 were actually faster than 1066.
My advice, stay with your color of chioce get 65 PTO hp, not engine hp. Go for IPTO, two valve dual hydraulics, power steering and definitely 3 point hitch.
