    If it is mechanically sound and running good I' d say jump on it. It is the backhoe model with the double frame and a 3 ph kit. New tractor similarily equipped up here would be about 14G's. They really hold their resale if cared for.

    Paperwork seems to indicate a snowblower and mowing deck is included which seems like a pretty good deal despite the turfs on the rear and industrial tires on the front.
    Plus the engine being in backwards. :D

    I thought that was kinda weird too until I found how much cleaner the rad stays when mowing and vaccing leaves and pine needles. As well, it blows the engine heat out the grill instead of on your legs. Not so dumb after all......................

    I put this in the Pelletheads thread, but thought I would throw it up here too - Vermont wood pellets in Kingston, NH; 15 bags for $75 - sweet price for those - hope someone from FHC is able to jump on them. It is just too far for me to go.

    I wonder why this is still up after 24 days? No takers? I suppose he wants you to take his lawn while you're there too.

    The ad is tough to read because of that.

    I'd like to reply by asking for pics of the trees so I could give him an estimate for what the job would cost.

    There’s a nice guy in VA who posted 70-80 Ash trees, free for the taking. I’ve already picked up 3 truck beds full, and since I’ve been consistent he told me that I can have as much as I want! There’s about 2 cords already down, stacked and seasoned for a year, but a substantial amount of downed trees that are freshly cut down. I’m looking forward to picking up more!
