The 460 will pull production.  It is just the opposite of race car, you work on it all weekend to race during the week.

single arch is ok, but duel is better. the 460 is a pulling pig/ likes fuel, is easy to operate. it is a deere after all. just watch the wires in the grapple control, they run thru the handle and are small and the harness is pretty spendy. good luck
