Been a few articles lately on the Deere board on getting the 3020/4020 gas models to run right. I would spend a while reading the threads to know what the issues are. From my reading I would lean towards the 4020 if green paint is in your sights. That is what I would buy if I needed another larger tractor. Can get a gas 4020 with syncro for around 5-7K here (sometimes less if you move quickly) in original clothing. Won't even look at a repainted tractor. Too easy to hide faults.

I have a Deere 65hp 2550 diesel and it works very well for my round baling needs. But is was around $10K bought 5 years ago.

My squares get made with a 2000 Ford 3cyl gas that runs perfect, with 8 speed and power steering. Just right for my NH 68 baler. Even pulls a trailer behind with 2 guys stacking. But we are in the prairie region of Ill so not much hills to mess with. The deere is used for cutting and round baling. The ford is used for tedding, raking and squares. A nice division of labor.

Wish it would stop raining here so we can get back to baling. Have not cut hay in almost a month.

John

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK). There is no known history regarding its origins or what service it had done, but the following work was undertaken alone to bring it up to show standard.
