Hey all!
I figured that at 52, I'm done sweating profusely in the summer and frezzing/getting wet in the winter! So, I've been researching cab tractors for a while and finally ran across, what I consider, to be an extremely great deal.
I called Rick Wallace on a few days ago inquiring on a Mahindra 3616 cab. During our discussion, Rick was kind enough to offer his opinion, which I, like many others, value his opinion. That said I strayed from the Mahindra and was offered a Bobcat CT335 cab w/ loader. The tractor's got 41 hours on it and both Rick and I are perplexed as there's never been a loader on the machine and you'd be hard pressed to find any scratches anywhere underneath or around the tractor. The tractor was never sold and Rick got it from a dealer in FL as he's trying to get all the Bocats that he can get his hands on. Now the loader's another story in that there's the Bobcat rust through issue; however, it's really not that bad as it appears just to be on the shape edges of the loader tube and areas where welding was performed. I will sand down the areas in question and paint accordingly and no one will know the differnce.
I'm completely in awe that I got this tractor for such a deal and Rick was kind enough to give me what I consider a fair deal to both of us on my ck20s. Rick and Amy and others were great to work with, had my paperwork done before I showed up and was out of there with tractor-in-tow within an hour! I would not hesitate to recommend Wallace Equipment and have absoulutely no reservations that if you purchase, you'd most likely find it difficult to get better pricing and better down to earth people to deal with.
I know...I'll get pics up as soon as I put the radio in!
