Well, I just looked in on the bid. 16hours left and not one bid.
He's placed it as no reserve and started the opening at $45,000. I despise that practice. No point in listing it as "no reserve" if you are going to open at your reserve. I doubt that this happens for him.

i am by far not an expert but that looks like a heck of a deal. Good looking machine and from what I have seen in most decent municipalities, machines do appear to last and are regularly serviced. I bet you can make a lot of money with that machine and not too heavy to haul in and out.

Well I'm trying to plan a trip to TN for a couple days. I've got two Volvo 140's im going to look at and will buy the better of the two of them. Got alot of work lined up for this winter and a 5th excavator will really help things out!

You think about getting one with a blade?

Ya, I was going to ask the same thing, the 140 with a blade I ran was really nice. The blade helps in positions where you think it could be useless.

I've had a long thought about blades on a hoe this size. I just think it will get in the way. Plus working in deep mud like I always do I think it'll become a anchor. As far as grading, I have a dozer or skid steer if I need to push or level dirt.
here's my ultimate goal. I want to eventually sell the tak 135 excavator for a tak 175 hoe this way my excavators will be a: 12k yanmar 16K takeuchi 175 30K 140 volvo 50K 210 volvo
