I am by no means the person to answer your question as I haven't had my M a week yet!

But I'll try.

I bought mine for $2,500. It included the 3 pt hitch, 7' straight blade and post hole digger. I figure I paid $2,000 for the tractor and $500 for the blade and post hole digger. The tractor seems to be in perfect working order with good tires and looks clean, hydraulics work good, no smoke, etc....

With that said, a box blade is worth $300 or so in pretty good shape and a front end loader can be worth up to $1,000 installed and working.

The $1,000 price tag would be worth it for the scraper and loader IMO and you could part the M out if it is going to end up costing you too much to get it running.

Now, if you are just wanting a tractor to buy and use like I was, this wouldn't be a good deal probably. All of those options are going to take time and effort on your part but the price doesn't sound that far off to me.

(But I really don't know what I'm talking about!)

FWIW, Nathan
