The 444 followed the 424 and is similar. A very good utility tractor around 40 HP. I once owned a 424 gasoline. On the 424, power steering was an option and I suppose as well was on the 444. The PS would be a definite plus. I did have some problems with the 3 point lift on my 424. The lift got to where it would not stay up or pick up much. A new piston was required for the lift cylinder which is inside the lift unit case under the seat. These tractors have a separate reservoir and do not use the transmission fluid for the hydraulics. A plus is that the older Mahindra tractors are almost direct copies of the 424/444 and many parts interchange. When the lift on my 424 needed repair, a Mahindra piston was used for the repair at about 1/2 the cost of the IH part. I never had much other problems. The tractor was very dependable.
