Please Tell me what/why/how you personally would spend your saved up cash on what pre-def machine.
This machine will primarily be a "county/borough" contractor secondary road maintenance machine. Summer maintenance, Winter plowing, Winging, Scraping ice and will have a Ripper, Front plow, side wing, and snow gate.
I have several older machines but newest is 95 Champ 740A series 3. @26k hours on it. I have a 726A same year at @6500 hrs. It's only got @800 hrs on motor, but lost the main 6wd hose in the gooseneck and starting to lose rest of the hoses. My 73 & 76 Cat 12G's are both tired and ready for back up machine status.
All good machines but repairs and downtime are telling me time to upgrade to a pre-tier 4 machine. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience.
