They wouldn't let me put the whole title in the post. But what was the worst thing that happened to you when you were looking at a tractor to buy? Some years ago I was looking for a little newer Ford tractor. There was a 650 in the paper so I called and drove the hour and a half to go look at it. Cold, cold MN windy day in December. Tractor wouldn't start without a jump. No problem. Seller hooked the 12v jumper to the starter stud then accidently touched the ground to the hydraulic manifold on the other side of the tractor. Don't ask me how... But, it arced a good pin hole in the pressure side of the hydraulic manifold. Sheesh. Of course I didn't buy the tractor. Why shucks it was wore out and had blow by, bad rubber and worst of all, was squirting hyd fluid all over. I felt bad for the seller but wasn't gonna buy it. There's gotta be some good stories out there.
