A lot of good stuff on here. I am slightly surprised but definitely happy that the oliver has received so much praise.
I have driven a 3020 at a big farm I worked on, and I liked it for most stuff but it really just seems gutless. I could not imagine trying to pull a 4 bottom plow with one. They seem to light. Even tho the HP is the same I feel like the Oliver is much heavier and I think for tillage it makes it the no-brainer. I will also say that the comfort of the operator on the Oliver is much better. The 3 speed, hydraulics, brakes, clutch, throttle are all handy and solid. I have been on 3-4 1655's and liked them so much I bought one myself. They are a great size tractors. Big enough to do tillage and small and economical enough to do haying and other easier jobs.
If you get the Oliver, I would be willing to bet it would be your favorite tractor to operate pretty quickly.
A few advantages for the Deere would be the foot throttle, and depending on where you live it might be easier to get parts for.
