Really like it. Super clean, but 10K hours with original engine & trans. Affordable, too.
Checks 9 of 10 boxes for me.
Only one it doesn’t check is I wanted to find something with under 7K hours.
The motor doesn’t scare me, but the CVT’s are on borrowed time after 10K.

Appears to be a pretty well taken care of unit.
The previous owner probably decided to trade before trouble starts, would be nice if you could do a test drive ….

Visually, it’s appearance is much better than my MT535B with 6,000 hours.

Asked seller if he’d dyno and do an opacity (?) test on the breather

Found a challenger for the Challenger. Lot lower price, but no CVT and no road speed. However, I can drive to see it and test it out.

Bigger & heavier with bigger loader.

What mount do you use for the fire extinguisher? Looks like something I want for my baler.
Not sure of the name of it, but it’s the type that bolts to a wall.

Have one on my baler, too.

Our town might have a Challenger for sale. It's been out of commission at a dealer 300 miles away for 8 months now. The local dealer didn't know what to do with it, so it went to one that knows the Challengers. It's been waiting on parts, someone who knows how to work on it, and an endless list of other excuses.

I’m looking for a 150+ HP with loader & CVT ready to roll. AGCO, Challenger or Massey.
Have plenty of broken equipment in need of repairs already.
