Are you happy with it? Does it do what you need it to do? You own it now, hope you're happy with it. Use it safely.

It took a humbling experience here some years back to bring me back to my senses and knock me down a notch or two, and some others. Some fella paid $17K for a really nicely painted and possibly restored 3020. My jaw dropped as did some others, and we said some things that we probably shouldn't have. One of the old timers here whacked us a good one, well deserved too, and reminded me of something I'd seemed to have forgotten for the moment. Was that fellas money, he can spend it anyway he wanted so long as it was legal. I've got an '80 950 that I paid less for up front, 2WD but put some $$$ in repairs and now have more in it than yours, and even though I don't use it much, it has its uses. It aint going anywhere for the $$$ invested unless I want to take a loss, so it aint going no place, nor does it need to. Its the little guy, but not incapable. Loader makes it nicer. 25HP, tips the scales at about 3K if memory serves me correctly. Nothing's perfect.

Good luck,

Mark
