Guy is renting out his tractor for 6 month period

[LS Tractor Owner]

Just by reading how it's written, sounds like the Nigerian Prince is trying a different approach.

The owner should just rent it on Construction Equipment Rentals - Search And Book Online | DOZR

At least it is old enough it doesn't have a DPF you will have to replace if you get the exhaust dirty.

I agree with the Nigerian prince comment. I would expect a "PhD" to be able to spell hydraulic and use commas where needed. In this case, I think PhD stands for "piled higher and deeper."

RUN .... what could possibly go wrong ? ...

umm, everything

It is spelled right.....in K-Bec (Quebec) English. LOL

I can also parle francais....so I'm allowed to make fun. LOL

I thought that too, but then seeing that he apparently comes from (and continues to spend half his time in) a French speaking area, I guess I can see it being for real. Especially because I am having a hard time figuring out what the angle would be for an online scammer- unless they are going to try to get you to deposit the 6 months rent in a bank account somewhere before you even see the tractor, don't really see how they could get money or information of value out of this.

The ad reads like it was written by a Nigerian prince.

I believe there is a way to do a search on the picture to see if the picture was taken from another source.

Personally this smells like a scam.

I think he wants the payment in gift cards.

What could go wrong?

Comparable full sized TLB like a deere 310 only rents for about $2k/month around me. I know its not a tractor.....but he is kinda advertising it as a TLB. And a pathetic 5' mower on that machine

And how would any warranty issues be handled without owner present or wanting to be bothered
