Buying Advice looking at a woods rm990

[DS DEERE]

My local dealer has a 2000 rm990 on its lot for $1695. I think it looks and sounds to be in good mechanical shape. It has water in oil but has sat outside for quite a while. Anyone know if this is a good mower and if the price is right.

They are a fantastic mower and I think it is priced fairly at well under half of new if in good condition. Get him to drain and fill the gearbox and then buy it if you need a mower that size.

Thanks. I am going to talk to them Monday about it.

It is the Cadillac of mowers and is made like a tank.
Retil price is on the order of $6,500.
