Just took another look at that 4110...

Thanks for the replies concerning durability. I just took another look at the unit, got under to check out the frame. All I could find was a steel beam, about 1/8th inch ,maybe 6 by 9 inches, and rectangular in cross section,with an open bottom, connecting the front end to the rear. Looked at a Mahindra 2015 the other day and it had a solid casting connecting the same, old fashion style. Even the bx series Kubota has some pretty stout steel for the frame. Looks like 3/8ths to 1/2 inch stock. Is there a structural member up inside there which I couldn't see keeping things from twisting? Also, the oil looked tar black and the unit had 175 hours on it. I wonder how often her changed the oil. What do you think? He wants 13 K with a 4 foot brush hog, rear snow blower, FEL, and a york rake. Rusty

We are talking diesel engine in the 4110, correct? In my experience it doesn't take long for oil in the crankcase of a diesel engine to get black from what I suspect is soot produced by combustion. Mike

As for pricing you can price out a new model either 2320 ( a little less of a machine IMO) or a 2520 both with loaders to compare.
It sounds high but that depends on a price for a new machine.
