not sure if you bought a skid steer yet but for what it's worth i'm actually impressed with the 420 i've worked on new hollands all my life and the 05 and 06 420's i've worked on has the shibura engine same as new hollands. very reliable engine, i have a customer that uses that new holland's in a foundry, 20,000 hrs. motor has not been touched yet. my customer that has the 420's runs them with solid tires in a recycling facility by mexicans that can't speak a lick of english and they have well over 2500 hrs. and still going strong.
