I bought a 1995 960 Mustang in 2000, so 5 years old, with 2700 hours showing on the meter. It ran and operated excellent. The hour meter never moved again in 18 years of use. I have no idea how many hours were actually on it when I bought it, and I figure conseverativly I put about another 2700 hours on it my self. My guess is 5400hrs minimum on that machine, could have been way more.........I really don't know. Anyway, I just sold it a few months ago, but that machine was as dependable as anyone could ever hope for. Never, ever fails to start and run excellent. I would have never gotten rid of it, but I had an opportunity to buy a nice, one owner, Melroe S-185 from a family estate that had 900 actual hours on it. Plus it had the heated cab, auxiliary hydraulics, and standard quick tach plate for renting other attachments, etc. I paid $9500 for the Mustang in 2000, and sold it for $8500 18 years later. It didn't owe me anything! Only repair I ever did was replace the water pump on the Isuzu diesel motor. It still had 2 of the original tires on it yet. I can only hope the Melroe is as good of a machine as the Mustang was.
