The little jewel that I ended up with

[WileyG]

A blind hog DOES find an acorn every now and then! It's a 2004 L3430HSTC with LA513 and Bush Hog cutter. All garage kept and like new with 459 hours when I loaded it up and took it home.

Pretty cool. The only thing I would do is beef up that top lip on the bucket and weld me some chain hooks on it. Then put that baby to work..

Looks like a blind hog had his eyes open! Nice acquisition! Ditto nybirdman's comment about being a great all around tractor.

That's a good deal. Hope everything is exactly as it is supposed to be, with no surprises.

I've put about 15 hours on it already and everything is perfect. Love the AC and radio/CD in the cab! I'll be adding 3rd function to the loader in a week or 2 so I can run a hydraulic auger and set some posts for a small pole barn to store it under.

A third function will not have enough "flow" to run a auger off the loader.You will have to go with a PTO driven rear auger.
I have a third function to run my snow-plow and thumb on my bucket.

I have to disagree with your statement. My loader is rated at 8.3gpm and I can rent hydraulic augers that require as low as 6gpm.
