just bought newer tractor

[vtsnowedin]

I am aware of them throwing rods but not even willing to sell me the tractor with a bad motor and I will use my motor on it sounds funny.

That's not funny , it is just the way it "Ought to BE". but often is not.
We will have to put your dealer on the list of straight shooters.

Oof. That's kind of sketchy. Probably something they would have been willing to admit to someone coming in to look at the tractor on site, but didn't feel comfortable selling long distance as is. I can't see it randomyl "throwing a rod" while sitting around in their parking lot waiting to be sold.

I agree, you got lucky. Be careful with that hard-earned cashola!

Yea I think it kind of shady I offered to buy it with the blown motor and he still would not sell it to me. But my local dealer I normally deal with called shortly ago and told me they just got a b7100 hst in on trade with a belly mower they have to look over and call me back but sounds just higher than what I wanted to spend. I have no use for the belly mower so hopefully I can sell that to make the extra back up.
