I have a 1967 Farmall 656 wide front gas tractor along with a couple slightly smaller diesel tractors for my main work tractors. I got the gas model for reasons previously posted as it is my "go too" year around used tractor for a lot of jobs here on this 400 acre Missouri farm. The operator's station is by far the best one of any of my tractors as there is nothing to bang and bruise your legs on even if you tried with the TA and gear shift mounted up on the rear engine/fuel tank cowling. I haven't done any "dirt work" with my 656 but I'm sure it would certainly handle it. It is my choice baler tractor as it sets up high above most of the dirt and dust from the baler operation. Being gas it is available to use year around while still being capable of doing anything. I use the high octane fuel as noted by Tractor Vet along with the CaseIH low ash motor oil. You might find the gas model more suitable for your needs on your small acreage as it doesn't sound like you have enough use to really let it snort and keep cleaned out which a diesel needs on occasion, Hal.
