Hi all, great, great advice from everyone, thank you! I'm a sucker for vintage machinery - have a 1948 Delta Bandsaw and a 1960s 8" Toolkraft Drill Press. Both need some TLC yet and it's probably not a good idea to take on another PROJECT :lol: But for both of those there's suppliers for parts and also even just modern replacements that can fit on those old machines (like bandsaw wheels & belts). I can even order stuff from Amazon. And the reason for getting them is because they're really good workhorses versus the lightweight stuff from China these days. But I suppose I don't have the capabilities to work on a 3000+ lb machine that as others have said are actually underpowered compared to what's out there today.

The 2N and Moline are $2300 and $2000 respectively. 2N actually has a snowplow, bucket loader & tire chains. Moline was being used as "indoor forklift" but I don't see hydraulics in the ad. Not really after a real logging machine but when I finally get my arborist certification I want to have capability for taking down small trees. My budget ... welll.... I'm also a sucker for bargains but not a sucker for expensive replacement parts or for having a dangerous machine if there's something safer for some more money. So I can afford $5k used and maybe up to $14k down the line for a brand new sub-compact tractor.

I wish I had the money for a skid steer :D Around here can't them used for less than 15-20k. I saw once 8k but it was really beat up.

So I'll steer clear of these two oldies and look for something from at least the 70's or 80's then. :)

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
