While it may seem insignificant the fuel cost (gas) the price is higher than farm diesl, but a gasser of the same size and power of diesel will use twice as much fuel! To cut the same amount of weeds that is like paying $4.00 a gallon for diesel! Wow would you do that! I dont think so! the cost of all that money going up your gas exhaust would pay the difference of the price of a diesel on a 10 acre farm in only 1 year! Do the math, not only that the diesels are out there to be had for a deal! I have bought 1 Fordson Dexta diesel with a Ohauled engine in the last 2 years for a $1000. bucks and a MF 35 Deluxe with Perkins 3 diesel for $1500. both running in good condition and will start the engine at "0"* in the winter. I also bought a Fordson Major diesel that run well but needed some work with a a loader for $300. I rolled it off the trailer and cut 200 acres of hey before working on it. Try putting a wanted ad on Craigslist in your area the sellers will come out of the woodwork!
