"PTO shaft hole lost its teeth while running a small square baler. Once in the shop we took the rear-end plate off and discovered the main bearing coming in from the transmission was coming apart. Seemed like the tractor was nickel and diming me to death. Over 7 years the repair cost averaged $7.06 per hour on this tractor. It was the deluxe model with air seat, corner exhaust, and optional hyd pump. I really liked the tractor but the repair bills just kept coming in. Never seemed low on power for sure. Replaced by a new 6430 Premium."
REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Pros: fuel economy, had optional fast hyd pump, PTO hp 125 tested.Cons: every year it seemed to go to JD shop.Type of User: Homeowner 10-50 AcresLocation: USA IAI also considered buying: Case-IH 5220 REVIEWER'S PHOTOS

REVIEWER'S ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Pros: Economic to run.Cons: 1st new series. A few electonic miscues.Type of User: Commercial FarmerLocation: USA INI also considered buying: REVIEWER'S PHOTOS
