Not familiar with that model, but I believe it's a diesel? I'm gonna say that is a great deal, if it is indeed a diesel. Just gas? Still a good deal. Post pictures when you get the chance you lucky dawg!

3000 hours isn't that bad providing it was maintained.

Dude I have an old Deere with 7,200 hrs on it and ooooooh does it run so sweet! And maintenance... what's that? I barely put fuel in the thing, you guys know what I'm talking about. The only thing I've changed on the old girl was her sneakers... those things really set me back! Tractor Pull!
