    Picked up one brand new for last night. They are $659.40 which is 40% off. Came to just under $700 here in PA.)
    Gonna sell my troy-bilt 25 ton and hopefully break even. I think its an upgrade as it has an 11 second cycle time versus 17 seconds, and its brand new. I bought the troy-bilt used for more than my new dirty hands.

    25 Ton with the Kohler? Sounds like a good deal.

    That's a heck of a deal, I paid just over 1,000 for mine a couple years ago. It had a couple leaks when I first bout it but all it needed was a couple of clamps tightened down. A couple of months after purchase the engine started running poorly, the insulator on the spark plug developed a crack, I replaced it and it runs excellent. All minor issues, it'll serve you we'll.

    Yes, jump on that one if you can. Fantastic price for sure. I'm almost tempted to buy one myself.

    I wonder if they will match the price locally...I know TSC has different prices for different stores...around the bigger cities the price is usually more...they will match the other stores though.
    With Home Depot you can order online using whatever store #, (the cheapest one) and then have it delivered...that's how everybody was getting the cheap Enlander NC30 stoves a few years ago...it was $99 to have it delivered to your door...

    It weird, I just looked and found a few stores in MA and one in VT selling them at the $649 clearance price. Nashua is the only store still at list. Might be worth taking a ride and asking a manager? Abbington, Weymouth, and S Burlington VT have them

    I did a search and found one not too far. It somehow ended up in my shopping cart on their website.:whistle:

    I have rounds all over. This will really get things processed quicker.

    Well, I made an appointment to put a trailer hitch on the RAV4. The short-term reason being, picking up wood at WeldrDave's property in August. This way, I can just rent a trailer rather than a whole truck. The long-term reason, I can see my scores becoming larger, more infrequent, and further away in the future, due to the dump supply drying up.
    And once a year or so we take the snowblower in for service. And if I get a splitter, I'll be able to move it.

    I'm wondering if they are last year's models. I got the last one and now they have them back up at the $1,099 price.

    3 year warranty, 11 second cycle time.:yes:
