Probably scam. See if they’ll let you look at it.

They will have similar descriptions for months at a time... 15.x hours, garaged, just did maintenance, incorrect specs (r1's in this case), identical picture from other listings, and the latest favorite.... One picture rotated 45 degrees (?)
I flag these things all the time.

When I’m one Craig’s list and I see something I can afford I know right away it’s a scam.

Could be a type on the price but probably a scam. Contact them asking where it is. When they tell you say, I am only 30 minutes away, will be right over. When they tell you it has been moved be ready to tell them amazing, that is where I live or my partner live there or such...if a scam it will keep moving. If real, it stays in once place.

Probably a scam but did show a phone number. The 802 area code is in Vermont. "*EXCELLENT WORKING SKILLS🍒" is not the way people in Virginia describe their tractors.

Here is a snip of the ad on my computer:
