When I was shopping for tractors back in '08 there was an 8430 with an IVT running a big TMR wagon at a large local dairy with over 9,000 hours and counting with no engine or transmission work. That said enough about longevity for me.
It is possible to kill a powershift in less than 15k hours, and I would not describe them as cheap to work on.
IVT vs. Powershift?
