I bought a 6530c Branson 4wd and FEL in '07. Made by Kukje in S. Korea. Really happy with it. 65 hp is a good size for what you mention as I am doing the same thing; in retirement and downsized. Big enough to do some serious work, but not too big and easy to get these old bones into and out of with the AC and heat, flat floor, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, shuttle shifter, air seat and all.
New tractors are really good on fuel. Mine burns .043 gal/hp/hr, so if working it hard at WOT that works out to about 2.8 gal per hour. Sure is a difference from my 6 cyl 2wd JD 4230.
