I have an '81 4440 also. You have to consider that it is/was one of the all-time best tractors of it's day. They are still VERY much in demand. A typical 4840 sells for roughly the same price as the smaller 4440. I've tried to buy another 4440 in the last year or so. Just about impossible to find a bargain on one. I'm not sure that todays tractors will be the good investment that the 4440 is. They will be VERY expensive to repair. Parts become obsolete so quickly on "modern" tractors. I have a 2440, 4020, 4440, and a 4955. I'm shopping for a 4440 or a 4840 to complete my "stable". I should be able to farm for the rest of my years with that compliment of tractors. No need to complicate my life with equipment I can't work on.....John
