We have an 8 speed powershift 4240 on our farm. I would advise you to look for a quad-range if you are going to be doing much fieldwork. The powershift does not have enough gears to work well in the field for us; 4th is too slow and 5th is too fast- this is our experience with either a 15 foot field cultivator or a 16 foot disk. We also use it on a 16 foot new Holland hydroswing for hay. The soundguard cab is much better than any ride I have had on a 4020 (this one replaced our 4020 with a loud and dirty cab). They will run a long time if the coolant and oils are kept up with. However, they are over 30 years old and do take some wrenching now and then. Good Luck! Lon
