Personally quality of your local dealers should come into play also. JDSeller makes a good point on questioning the future of AGCO. If their other dealers are no better than our local dealer they are doomed. For me I prefer IH or Deere, but I'm not blindly predjudiced to those two. We have a couple MM antiquers and I have run the neighbors 2-105 some and will say it is a good machine. But you can't blindly dismiss resale value either eventually you will want to trade up. I saw a cherry AC 8070 powershift with less than 4000 hours sell on a sale a couple years ago for $17,000, when a comparibly sized Deere or IH of the same vintage would be $27-30,000. The reason for that is parts and service availability and the reliability thereof. We went back to a Deere from a White for our main planter because the Agco's definition of a machine down part order is 3 days, Deere or IH or NH is next morning by 8 or 9 a.m. Availability of parts is no good if you can't get them when you need them. Personally I'd find you a 4440 I have yet to find a person disapointed by one.

The reason you don't find any decals in your replacement set wit
