We were in he same situation as you are. We had a Gleaner N5, and now have a 1660. Went to caseih for the same reasons. After learning more about our 1660, try to find out the service records, especially on the rotor. If its rocky in your part check to see if there was a rock trap in place. We damaged our rotor because of that reason and costed us big time. The newer the nicer features on them but a 1660 will keep up with the rest. The rotor is the bigge to check on otherwise look at general wear. Good luck

only one to be concerned with would be a 1995 2166. this was the first year for 'em and they had some issues. IF all updates were done then no problem otherwise the 1996's on up are great, the 1994 1666 has alot of the 21 series components(FIl'S 1666 even uses 2166 air filters) also check unload auger wear this and tank auger can wear out fast depending on moisture of crop it harvested.
