Looking at a 240

[bhgkiks]

I found a mid 1990's 240 with brand new paint/decals, brand new tires, canopy, 1700 hours, and a heavy duty box blade for $7,300 from a local farmer. $6900 w/out the box blade. Clutch/brakes seem good, I dont see any major oil leaks, although the paint is so new it could be hard to tell.


Sound like a decent deal?

About the "going price" on one around these parts. If it's a nice one, not too bad. If it's been hammered, I'd walk on by. Good tractors if in decent condition. Kinda "new" for needing a paint job already. I'd ask a LOT of questions and look close.

Thanks for the reply...I am still looking. Debating on gettting something newer for more money, or older (like a Ford 3000) for less money but knowing that I will have some expenses coming up. It's a tough choice.
