( Next tractor will have a factory installed FEL -- unless I can find a cheap skidsteer which is what I really want.

Did you say Cheap and Skidsteer in the same sentence?? /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

There was an equipment auction a couple of months ago that I missed because of weekend, wife-related, flower garden obligations. A small Gehl in good condition sold for around $1500 - just because nobody there had a use for it. At least the flowers look nice and I'm not in the dog house.

What a shame you couldn't have gotten that one.
I missed an auction not long ago where a friend managed to go. He told me of several items that went for very little because there weren't many people there, and they didn't much want the items. Two good moving type vans went for 1500. I was looking for one at the time but my friend didn't know that. He said they were both fairly late models and in good shape. What a price to miss. John

A company by the name of Soo Tractor makes Masseys loaders, and unless they have updated, it also has a sub-frame around the nose of the tractor. Also they would not have a mounting kit for a non-current model.
