From the very first post on the pt forum in dec of 2000. Someone with the handle of willie pizza..
I have allready checked that web site out. I think if it was me I would have bought a Max machine, if that is what I was looking for, they have a time tested design. I looked at those machines and ended up with a John Deere Gator 6*4. I was amazed how much we used the machine after we bought it. It is extremely rugged. I have 1800 hour on it and have only had to replace the muffler and belt. We bought a Power Trac PT.425. Will keep you posted on how it works out. Paid $9,650 for a 25hp, 60" deck, Bucket with teeth and a power angle snow blade. Seemed like a very good price. The motor is a Kohler, wish it was diesel but at that price I can get over it, the diesel was almost $6,000 more. Will keep everyone posted.
Just fun to look at the history
