Opinion on M4900

[add147]

What is everyone's opinion on a Kubota M4900 with 128 hours on it?

That's kind of a really broad question.
#1 It's a Kubota, so that's great
#2 It's an M so if you want a bigger tractor there is that.
#3 There is 6 different versions of the M4900 each has it's +'s and -'s
#4 Being that is somewhere between 24 and 18 years old with only 128 hours is an anomaly!

Yes I totally agree it is red flag but the hours are legit.

It really helps when you quote a reply, if you follow it up with some typing.

If the price is right, the hours really don't matter.

Sorry about that...Using my phone and I guess I missed including the thread.

No apology needed, just giving you a ribbing.

It is low hours. If legit, potentially a steal.

One thing to watch out for on low hours machines that are older is that some people only do the hours based service intervals. Arguably that tractor might have had only one service in its entire life (or even none). The services are supposed to be both time and hours. You may find some of the hoses, fluids, filters are perished, depending on exactly how it's been stored.

Do you know the story behind the extremely low hours? Does it seem legitimate?
