Power Trac in Western NC?

[kbeaty]

Is anyone near Western NC (Cashiers) who owns Power Trac equipment that would allow me to take a look at it? I'm looking at buying a PT 1845 or 1850 and have never seen any PT equipment. Any model I could look at would help get a better understanding of qualiity and operations without having to drive to VA.

Welcome! There's a PT owner's list, but it's not complete;

PowerTrac Owners by State 11-1-15, updated 10/25/2021

As usual, if you'd like to be added or removed from the list, just shoot me a message and I'll get to it as soon as possible. ;) Also, I'm gonna try and clean up all the blank lines sooner or later. Takes a lot of scrolling.

How are you looking to use your 1845/1850?

All the best, Peter

Saw this post and though you might find it interesting.

PT 1845 & PT 1850

Other than engine, what are the major differences between the 2 slope mowers? I get the feeling that the PT 1850 is a real beast! The ground clearance is so low I would not feel comfortable working in the woods with it. I am surprized that the lift capacity is only 1,200# for something so...

When I got my PT1460, I went to the factory (about 5 hours drive also). They let me drive several machines and use them on their rock pile to get a feel for them.
Decision was clear after testing the different machines which one was right for my use case-land developing and building my home.
My machine has been very strong.
Good Luck!
