Door #2.
Reason? The M5OD tranny limits you to towing 3500# or less. Engine shouldn't make any difference for farm towing.
However - what's a 4.5? If you meant a 4.2 V6, 97 was a BAD year and I'd say none of the above would be suitable. If you meant 4.6 or 5.4, it's a go.
If you won't be towing more than 3500#, the 03 with a V6 would do it like a champ. That's what I own. The 98 would work very well too.
