That's just it - sometimes you need the size for safety sake. The 8430 is overkill on the 650 bushel cart, but I don't want to be around when that cart decides to shovel a tractor around. It was the first time any of us could remember the pto on that tractor being used. We used to use a Farmall H on the grain cart. That cart now would only hold half of a combine full with the 9500's grain tank size.
It takes lots of tractors to farm these days with the tillage and crop management equipment involved. You aren't just disking and planting and harvesting anymore. I got rid of one of the 4440's when I bought the 7800 a year ago. It was a huge mistake. The worst is haying. Now I'm thinking of something a little smaller than the 4440 to help with raking, square baling, etc. The worst part about the new machines is that the are all dualed up. The only thing that can run a square baler right now is the 4020. Raking with a dualed 4440 ahead of the baler is no fun.
