Re: Wasabi\'s 2445
Actually, this PT 2445 found me! After posting my wish list on TBN (where else?) and scouting around a bit, I actually found the ideal PT2445 trailer package on E-bay!!!/w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif I was all excited because I was the lead bidder, but the seller in Colorado ended up canceling the auction and offing it privately.
Shortly thereafter, an individual with a similar package in Danville, Illinois contacted me via e-mail. We kibbutzed back and forth via e-mail for a month or so, struck a deal, and I drove up with a buddy in his Ford F250 Diesel to check it out, confirm condition and haul it back. I got a good enough deal that "some" repair expenses don't make me feel too bad...tho I'd rather be operating it than working on it. Sure is fun!!/w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif
When all is said and done, even with repairs, I'm confident that it will more than pay for itself. Outside estimates for tractor work ahead of us include $6,000 for septic field, $ 1,500 for clearing for work sheds and $3,500 for house site, and those only represent the tip of the proverbial iceberg.
