eBay/Craigslist Here's a 2007 JD 990 with just 15 hours on it....

Would you be afraid to buy a 2007 model tractor with just 15 hours on it?? I'm not considering buying this by any means (especially at his asking price of $15,200!), but this tractor has done a LOT of sitting in the shed. While it looks brand new, I just wonder if that much sitting is "bad" for a diesel? Heck, it's not even broke in yet. By the way, according to tractordata, it's actually 40.4 engine hp, not 42hp as advertised.

Here's the ad, the CL link will probably go dead at some point.

needs a full fluid service and a loader and you still have a gear shift tractor its no deal

That's not a deal. If it had the 300 loader then yeah it would be in line asking price.

As far as buying it if it were a deal, as long as one hadn't set out in the sun/ weather I wouldn't have a problem.

Wow! Anythings possible. Back in the mid 80's I was installing CATV in Mesquite. Had to run a cable through the garage of an older house. There was car under a dust covered tarp. Curiosity kills the cat. I just had to look. 68 Camaro SS, black on black, mint. Put my little flashlight to the dash- 550 miles.

Would you ask the customer about that car? I still feel bad about asking the old man. First, he jumped down my throat for looking at it. Then he pulled a frame with two photos in it off the mantle. Young man standing by a new Camaro wearing a graduation cap and gown- and next to it the same young man in a Marine Corp uniform.
