I have a 4430, 4640 & 8100. I have always liked running these tractors & the muffler & intake air pipe on the hood really is no big deal. Before the 8100 was viewing a 4560 but the lure of the better Hyd outlets & what they can do for newer planters is my tipping point. If your staying with 12 row planters or less than the 55 or 60 series will do just fine & they do have more Hyd capacity than the early Magnums. Hard to beat the JD 2WD or MFWD tractors.


+1...hydraulics, a better cab and easier to install integrated autosteer on the 8000 (if it doesn't have it already) would have me leaning towards an 8000 especially if it's going to end up on a 16 row planter.

edit: it was easier to install our outback hydraulic system on our 7810 than trying to put one on our 4450. 4450 had to go with an electric steering wheel which some of the operators don't care for.
