I'm shopping for a brush hog tractor and found what appears to be a decent 1984 Deere 1650 2WD tractor with just over 2000 hours. These models have the Yanmar diesel. The original owner's son stated it has no mechanical issues but the rear tires are just "fair". He indicated the bottom line price is $8000 but I tend to think that's still too high. I had been looking for a Ford 4000 or 4600 (comparable to the 1650) but decent ones are nearly impossible to find around here. I know green paint always commands a bit of a premium but wanted to get some objective feedback. I'm thinking $7000 is far more reasonable based on nationwide web searches for the Ford 4000 series but there's simply no price comparisons I can find for the 1650. I don't want to make a four hour round trip visit unless I'm in the same ballpark with this gentleman. Your thoughts? Thanks in advance!
