We have a 2wd 495 8F/4R & 2200 loader, had it since brand new.
Great tractor, fwa would make it a fantastic tractor compared to a great tractor.
42 PTO HP, weight about 6000lb with loader. Big enough for most jobs requiring that power and small enough to do light work as well.
Tractor made at IH's Doncaster plant in the UK. Made 1991-1994.
Nearly identical to the 485 and 3220 (cosmetics) and C50 (cosmetics and perkins power)
We have no problems on parts, that basic design of IH/CIH has been around in various forms since the early 70's and made into the 2000's as the McCormick C-series (perkins power though)
Under 300 hours...20 K "here" if it is MINT. I personally would take a "brand new" 495 over any of the current 2010 models of any make equipped the same. Anything new in the 495 class is 3rd world made, less features and lighter.

The General GG was made by the Cleveland Tractor Company (Cletrac) of Cleveland, Ohio. Originally the company was called the Cleveland Motor Plow Company which began in 1912, then the Cleveland Tractor Company (1917) and finally Cletrac.
