I'd have to agree. Bought a 5ft Woods BBX in 2006, never changed the oil, 3 sets of blades, 1 new yoke and tail wheel assy and have I run or backed over 2in plus gums/other stuff since then and never had a single issue other than maybe a dozen driveline shear bolts. Its pretty dented but still...
At Surry Equipment in Virginia yesterday he had a MF240 2wd no loader with about 135hrs for $6500. Had a beat up 5ft Landpride cutter on it. Tractor wasn't beautiful but the Perkins sounded good. The hours are super low and I was tempted but don't need it. Too big for my use.
