If it is in usable condition, $4000 is an average price for a loader. Dozer with a 6 way blade would be worth more. I could of bought a 450 loader last summer for $3200. Those machines kind of scare me - but I was a Deere mechanic for years. 450 has a few potential problems that won't show up until it's been worked hard for a few hours. HL-R if worn can work great at first and stop working completely when hot. Engine can also get worn balancing shafts and the result is good oil pressure cold and near none when good and hot.
