Re: FEL or not (for now)-or Will it ever get done?
Wow what a deal Von! Thats exacly what I'm hoping to come across. An i'm willing to drive a ways to get one. 2710 and 2910 aren't that old though, and most folks that get em hang on to them. The one dealer i talked to had me at 900 difference between the 2710 and 2910. I know with my 25hp 1952 8N the ole brush hog would bog down on me purty easy (don't know what hp the 8N was at the 3ph). the 2910 has 22 hp at the 3ph which is 2 more than the 2710. So i thought 2910 would be worth the difference; but if i found a deal like you did on a 2710 I'd swoop on that as fast as i could. The only used ones I'm leary of are the ones used by a business. No way to tell how many operators and how it was treated. I'd assume, it was treated like a rental car or something that the user doesn't care about since they are just using it that day or week ....
Nice to know there is deals out there like that though. Maybe this coming april will be lucky for me that way too!
Congrats on your deal, and thanks for sharing.
