I ran my 1460 to 5000 hours and a 1660 to 4000.  I believe the 1660 is still in use in the area.  With the 1460 there was some smaller issues that would crop up during the last couple of seasons that would stop harvest for a couple hours at a time.  Things that "don't ever happen".  The peace of mind of a lower houred and more reliable machine helped make my decision to trade, although I realize lower houred and reliable don't always go together.

If you're used to red, stay with red.  Due to parts being much closer, I strayed away to another color for a little over two years before I traded back and felt much more comfortable getting back into a red one.
