<font color="blue">"...I saw while browsing the JD brochure that in fact it does post the torque for the 4410 as higher then the 4510 or 4610 at rated speed which is the maximum engine RPM or 2600 RPM...."</font>
Yep....this is the same information supplied me by my dealer. Spec sheets do say the 4410 has higher torque than the 4510 or 4610. It's hard to believe JD's engineers would get this wrong. If it's a misprint caused by JD's marketing division, why haven't they picked up on it and corrected the misprint as I've seen this info on a couple different pieces of JD literature?
<font color="blue">"...For my needs, I think I will be looking at the 4610 or 4710..."</font>
You'll like either one....but as discussed in the aforementioned posts the 4710 does have the highest torque ratings in the 4x10 series if power is what you're looking for. If interested, take a look at my 4710 in the thread entitled New 4710 Came Home Yesterday in JD's Owner/Operating Forum. You'll have to scroll back to last July or thereabouts. I could not be more pleased with this unit's operational performance. It's quite a dynamo that's packed into a compact tractor frame.
<font color="blue">"...How is the eHydro..."</font>
eHydro runs great. I had some hesitancy when I bought the 4710 when I heard they changed the 4700's HST to the eHydro. HST would provide a more abrupt stop when foot is released from forward pedal....I heard from others though eHydro provided more of a rolling stop with a greater tendency for the operator wanting to brake. I have not experienced this. On level terrain, eHydro will come to a rolling stop without braking within a reasonable distance.
<font color="blue">"...How does Load Match work? I see what it does, but how does it do it?"</font>
To be frank....I really don't know. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif I've never had a reason to use it. I've picked up some fairly heavy loads of fieldstone with proper ballasting on the 3PH and I've never experienced difficulty with lifting the load or transporting it to the degree I needed to use Load Match.
