I'm looking at one and it seems to be a good rugged unit for the money; built as one of the AGCO conglomerate units under the Challenger name (formerly Caterpillar's rubber tracked gear).
It's like a mid sized Kubota, with a 4 foot bucket and what appears to be a 6'backhoe (small at least). Built between 2002 and 2005 by the Japanese Iseki group, which built all kinds of stuff for many companies. It has a 3 cyl Iseki diesel engine, probably 24 or 28 horsepower (although the dealer is advertising it at 30). 900 hours, good treads, assume fully functional. Dealer wants $10K.
This is a lot of tractor but I could be seriously out of luck when it comes time for a non-generic part. Anyone familiar with this line?
