You'd do well to have that 867 in particular as a great worker for yourself in the future. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would suggest short of a negative exchange here on the forum, that should stay on Craigslist. If something happens here, take it up with a moderator. 1 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne0 457 #133 Posted January 6 I guess I'm only saying this to give him a "heads up". I have nothing against the guy. He's a forum member, so I give him that respect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But crazy market today does not help with that. Back in the day you could buy a $200 to $400 tractor all day every day on most models. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
