Do you have any hills on your acreage? A 656 will have the old style TA which is freewheeling in TA. This would eliminate 5 useable speeds if you have hills, thus leaving only 5 forward speeds. With a 706, you will get 8 forward speeds plus the new style TA. I know that a 706 is probably more tractor than you need for your acreage, but if you get a diesel, the difference in fuel consumption isn't much. Both the 656 and 706 are really good tractors. Both are over 30 years old, and are still used on working farms all over the USA.
