Hi all,
Been Lurking here for some time. Love all the excellent feedback people get. I have been learning A LOT. I currently have a 53' Ferguson TO 30, but we are buying a piece of property that (long story short) will require a really significant amount of dirt work (building pads, foundations, ponds, swales, trenching for ditches and utilities, etc.) . I have begun to lean towards more dedicated TLBs in the 30-40hp range and have a few questions:
1) I am looking at a l39 with 2400 hours. It has the 3pts with it. Not sure on history of use, but still wondering what everyone thought about the hours. The asking price is 20,500. Anyone have a good idea what a machine like this should actually sell for?
2) With hours like that what should a buyer pay close attention to?
3) Are there other less expensive, but just as strong of TLBs that i should keep in mind other than the Kubotas?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
