This may be too late but all else being equal, the JD455 would be my choice. The 22hp Yanmar diesel is simply awesome and I would it expect it would outlast a gas engine offsetting the diference in hours between the two machines. Either way you go, you shouldn't be disappointed.

If you go with the 445 make sure it is '99 or newer or had the camshaft gear replaced with steel one. The plastic cam gear can fail at anytime and then you're looking at a $700 repair... ....
