Think my son has found the one. 455 in Ohio with a little under 300 hrs. From the pics it looks good. Dealer has given my son the name of the original owner and they have spoke. Getting same story from both. Owner planted a lot of trees and was feeling he needed a zero-turn mower. Owner said the dealer has had this for some time and in the small town where they are located there is no interest in diesel for the city folks.
Getting down to the small details, is sale tax going to be charged & final price. Son has offered $5k and dealer was asking $5200. Son has got a quote for $675 to deliver door to door.
Could be in 2 weeks my son could be sitting on a 455 and be ready to say good bye to the 316.
Thanks to those that offered comments. |
