My son set out to buy almost the same thing. Our JD 4040 has 8800 hrs. It has never been overhauled, engine or transmission. But it has had a lot of down time from things like hydraulic lines wearing holes in them, hyd pump drive, water pump,hyd cooler leaking, rad leaking. The list goes on and on. A good tractor but 8800 hrs and it is 35 yrs old. Thought we wanted a 6410 JD. The one we found was 38000 and had 3500 hrs. did have a good loader with self leveling bucket. Then we found out you could buy a new Kubota 90 engine hp for 44000. This is cab-air 4X4 shuttle and 12 speed trans, but no power-shift. 16.9X34 rear tires. Went to look and drive one ended up with a New 126GX with every option. Glad we moved up to the 126 hp one. will pull the 4040 tools with ease. and costs 12 dollars a hr less to run, on diesel fuel alone. We have ran it 200hrs already so has saved over 2400 dollars in fuel. We also priced a 6125 JD it was 30000 dollars higher. Also new Kubota's have 0% interest for 5 yrs. Sorry this sounds like a Kubota commercial, never thought we would own one. Vic
