Scam. The grammar and excitement gives it away.

If it isn't a complete ripoff, I don't know the life expectancy of a large HP diesel engine like that, but 3200 hours would scare me away personally.

Besides, who in their right mind would mow grass with a tractor that large and heavy?

Here in california i always see caltrans mowing with a big tractor about that size.i did tell my brother that it has alot of hours.he tells me his massey has 5000 hours and it runs perfect lol

If I needed a large tractor, I'd be interested. 3200 hours is a lot, but if used for long days of mowing and well maintained, it's still got a lot of life in it.

It looked good on the CL ad.

[RollingsFarms]

Big ag tractors of 90+ hp don't even need their first rebuild until about 5000-7000 hours if properly maintained. 3200 hours on a ag tractor is no sweat, got PLENTY of life left in her! You're disappointed to get anything LESS then 10000 hours out of one to be honest.

whats a cummins?

It is part of the kanuter valve on the top of the engine. Google 'kanuter valve' and you will find a picture and clear description. Philip.
