I am thinking about getting a 656/686 to replace my 484D.Never considered anything other than a diesel, BUT... with off road fuel leading gas by about 40 cents anymore maybe I should ask for some advice.First the facts.I will put about 150 hours a year on this tractor.It will be mainly used for: Hi-lifting(2250),planting(56 4 row corn planter and a 510 grain drill) raking hay and moving wagons around the farm.As you can see this tractor should not be stressed.My 966 does all the grunt work. Would it be worth the cheaper purchase price, which looks like about $2000 to $3000 less and pray the gas consumption doesn't catch up for a few years or spend the extra money on the diesel.With fertilizer pushing $700 a ton it would be nice to have the extra cash this spring. Thanks for any help. A.J.
