Mickey, the 455s were nice tractors and with the kind of hours you are talking about will last a good long time. The 425s get a bad rap for the plastic cams in the early models, although many had machines with those cams and had no issues, leading many to suspect maintenance factors. As with any machine, the service history is key. I'd look for a machine with one.

Cheers
