    Just ordered a FSM today. Definitely going to need that especially for checking out the front axle. I scored pretty good on this one I think!

    Hahaha! That's pretty funny! Yes, I was really close to pulling the trigger on a new BX18. Fate had other ideas! I've done a few more maintenance items today. Replaced the glow plug timer. Now I have a glow plug light! Also replaced the glow plugs. Gotta replace one of the hydraulic junction...

    Thanks! I'm going to drop the front axle and see if its a bearing or maybe a diff gear or something. It's a crazy story about how I got it. I went to the local Deere dealership to compare there sub compacts with Kubota and a guy came in with the Ford and was trading it in on a new tractor! I...

    Thanks! Hours are approximately 1500 to 2k hours. The tach was replaced awhile back but I have a chain of receipts that list hours. About 4 years of missing data. I paid 500 bucks for it! It runs pretty good but I'm in the process of catching up on maintenance. Also needs something in the...

    Hey everyone! Just wanted to say thank you to everyone that responded to my inquiry. I stumbled on an older Ford 1220 that I just couldn't pass up! She runs well but will need maintenance and a few repairs.

    I did price a couple out on the website. Also went down to our local dealer. I'll probably branch out into Texas and see what I can find. Gonna make some calls on Tuesday on a couple that are in Amarillo and Lubbock. Shipping shouldn't be too bad from there. I agree. That tractor would be fine...

    Yeah, Unfortunately we aren't in an area that is heavy in agriculture. There is ag in the Rio grande river plain areas but that's about it. Mostly high desert. So not a lot of inventory around as compared to the Midwest and south.

    Well. I made an offer of 7k. He said he couldn't go that low. He countered at 10k. I told him I went down to look at new ones and for a few grand more I could buy new! I think he really believes it's a 2012. Oh well. Gonna look at a new 18 and 23. I'll keep you posted!

    Has some damage on the hood. Headlamps were broken. Fuel gauge didn't work. Pedal pads missing. Paint was faded from sitting outside. Seat was torn up. Rear lights were broken. Just don't think it was cared for very well.

    Just got back from looking at the tractor. Not nearly as nice cosmetically as the picture shows. It's definitely been well used. Tractor seemed to run fine. No leaks. Has some service history. Fuel gauge didn't work. Lights were broken. Didn't come with rear blade. Overall it would be fine...

    He said he bought it a year ago from Mesa tractor here in Albuquerque. I think someone there messed up the year on the bill of sale. Going over to check it out in an hour! Yeah, I see scam ads all the time on CL. Seems like these tractors really hold their value. Could almost buy a new one for...

    Thanks for the response! It comes with the FEL but not the scraper. No other implements come with it.

    Hmm, that's not something I considered! Thank you. So these tractors don't come with a title? Thanks again for the info.

    Ok. That's what I thought. Thanks for the response! I'll try to get the serial number when I look at it tomorrow. From the picture it definitely looks like a BX2200 and not something from 2012.

    Here is a link to the tractor I am looking at https://albuquerque.craigslist.org/grd/d/rio-rancho-kubota-tractor/6887209775.html What do you guys think? Seems high for a 2200. I don't think its a 2012 as the seller claims. I sent him a text about that and he says he bought it from Mesa and...
