Which auction house were you using? Congratulations on your wining bid.

There was one for sale around here on CL last year. I think it was 1500 +\-. I ended up renting a stand on Toro 40" or 48". It worked very well, even on slopes. I imagine a 72" would be great on wide open flat areas though.

Got it off govdeals.com . Its about an hour and a half from me . I was just at a cubscout pinewood derby and was talking to a guy I know that also has a tractor . I asked him If he saw it , he told me he thought he had it , but somebody beat him out last minute . I was cracking up , I told him he could borrow it .
