I made contact with the owner and plan to see it this weekend.
He’s asking $38k, 1800 hours
Anyone have experience with this machine and what I should be looking for?

Fancier M7060 with bigger cab. There is a deluxe and standard, deluxe has electric shift 4wd as easy difference.

1800 hours just make sure the fluids and filters have all been changed since since new. Otherwise the usual checks of any tractor. Check front axle oil level, you'll need wrenches to open the plugs. If an axle seal leaks undetected it will run the axle dry.

Solid tractor design really. I have a M7060 and would have bought an M4-071D, just opted to save some money with the smaller cab.
