Really? Man that tractor is like new. Theres one on tractor house with 1100 hours for $29k. Depending on where you live maybe $28-34 but thats just a guess. No cab right?

In my neck of the woods they are priced at $34,500, one with a Quicke loader and 3400 hours, other with a MF loader and 1400 hours. These are 2006 machines. US prices are alot cheaper.

But 92 hours? What year is the tractor. It's barely had enough to do one service. Low hours are good, but that would concern me if it was not used frequently enough and spent most of it's life sitting.

Believe it or not to me low hours are not a issue. I have purchased 2 tractors that were between 15-20 year old with very little hours. I fixed 3 leaks between both of them and thats all that was required. Very minor to me for what I got. The last one i just found in 2012 was a 1988 ford 2810 with just over 400 hours. Its like brand new and runs that way too.

The tractor is a 2006 year model and looked brand new but wasn't just what I wanted. It didn't have the skid steer type bucket and telescoping links. It belonged to a girl I went to school with almost forty years ago that had lost her father so she inherited five tractors and lots equipment some of which had never been used. She said she ask him why he just bought a new gooseneck trailer, he had several others and she said he told her just in case he wanted to haul something. Sounds like my kind of guy.

You can add an ssqa for very little money, and link ends wont be too pricey either. I would snatch that tractor up in a heartbeat.
