[QUOTE="Atimm693, post: 1694088, member: 26138"] The new stuff breaks down too, and a lot of times the parts are harder to get. There is a plethora of aftermarket and NOS OEM stuff for 30/40/50 series Deeres that you can have shipped to your door in 3 days. Shoup carries a bunch of it, and they will have stuff here in no time. With our newer stuff, there is no aftermarket, dealer is the only option. Most of the time they don't even stock what I need. I think a quad is just fine, but a powershift with a reverser is a lot handier for a lot of jobs. I for sure wouldn't have spent that amount of money on a 4430. The 4640 and 4440 are twice the tractor, even though they are "comparable" in size and age. The 40 series got the bigger engine and a lot of upgrades to the rear end, while the 4430 is essentially a 4020 with it's tail twisted. Still a very capable tractor, but a 4640 is stout, even by today's standards. [/QUOTE]
