what have you thrown at the 1450 that it was not capable of for you? I had some trees blown down in a storm a few weeks ago. I've been dragging around 200-300 pound sections of tree trunk with mine and the only thing that stops me is when the turfs lose traction.
As far as how much to put into it and the breaking point.. Some of the guys here have thousands tied up in a single tractor between engine rebuilds, total restorations, implements and maintenance. I've only had my 1450 project this season and already have about a grand into it, and it needs a lot of work yet. Old or new, you get what you pay for.
