I do this for some of my customers on a local and national basis but usually on newer high dollar equipment. I do a walk around inspection,first checking the serial number to make sure it is what it is supposed to be,then checking cosmetics,fluid levels and condition,leaks,repairs,cracks,welds,tire or track condition etc. Then do a ride and drive,checking operation of steering, brakes,clutch,and trans operation,guages,pto and hitch,and photo documentation. This is the basic local service,and runs around $150.+/- depending on distance.Out of state is $250/day plus expenses. If the customer wants a more detailed evaluation,ie:checking oil pressure,clutch pressures,compression test,dyno test etc. then this is additional at my normal hourly rate.I document my findings,and usually take 20-30+ pictures to back up my recomendations.(A picture is worth a 1000 words)This covers everybody concerned and also helps in the event of damage while being shipped.
