    Takeuchi TL26/TL126?

    Does anyone here have anything good or bad to say about these older machines? I'm looking at one currently that seems to be a rarity. It's being sold by the original owner, under 2000 hours and never worked in manure or gravel, and no major repairs in the past, doesn't even appear to have any...
