Aaron...the price seems very reasonable to someone who likes Farmalls in general and Ms in particular. The problem with advertising on a site like this is that you are advertising to people who are often hundreds (or thousands) of miles away. The Ms are great machines and yours sounds pretty nice...but time and space conspire against most people when tractor shopping. I usually can't see tractors within 100 miles of me because I can't shoehorn 4 hours into my schedule most of the time. Ms are big and a lot harder to haul than a Cub. Most people won't buy a tractor sight unseen and then pay to have it hauled to them. Most people find it more feasible to just wait on a tractor near them and buy it even if they have to spend more to fix it...it probably costs less than hauling any distance and the KNOW what they have in the end. Try advertising in you local area or putting it up for auction with at least an $1800 reserve. You'll get bites...and winter is not a real good time to sell. When there is work top be done and people are a few months closer to a payback they will buy.
