Hi guys I'm new here. I run a small landscaping company, and I've been looking at adding a skid steer. I found a 1996 New Holland LX565 with 4100 hours with forks and bucket. Machine looks to be in better shape than others, paint is good, not much rust and paint chipping. He says there are no oil leaks. From what I've been told the machine is tight with a little play in the bucket tilt linkage. The tires are foam filled, but the bad is that the tires are bald and need replaced. He is asking $6500 with bucket and forks, and $5800 with just the bucket. What do you guys think? How much would a set of 4 tires run me? and what would you guess the maintenance I would need to get her to 100%? Thanks very much! - Mike
