Yea it's not near the deal then. That is about half the tractor of a JD 4000.

A little more info - 787 hours, diesel - to answer some of your questions. It apparently was kept under cover for quite a while, but hasn't been for the last several years. The bushhog it comes with is at least 5', might be 6', but haven't asked or measured.

Sounds like a good tractor. I have a Ford . 4000 and love it /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gifseems I can put 5 gallons of diesel in it and run it all day. If it has been setting outside besure to check the the oil bowl on the air filter. I let mine set outside for a winter and rain water drained down in the bowl over filling it did not discover it untill I had cranked it and ran it for a while in the spring. After I saw that thought I was lucky it did not suck up the water/oil into the cylinders and damage the motor.
Good luck,
BTW if you purchase the tractor how about posting a few pics.
