    Buy you a 20 year old green one. In 20 years you will still be able to get parts and if you want to sell you will get 75% of what you paid for it. We have 6 so I'm partial to them but the 4020 is a 71 model & parts are readily available for it.

    50 or 55 series MFWD hooked to the round baler on the left?
    Those bring a fortune any more.

    I see the center of gravity sticker near the forklift end. Did he try to lift the whole thing first?

    No, with no supports on the bottom of the pallet we just liftgated it down after he drug it out far enough. He probably had enough tilt to keep it back but with a $10k saw we didn't take the chance.
    Plus i had picked it up with my jack and at least a foot and a half of it still stayed on the ground and he had short forks.

    @wore out ,it's a little short notice but there's 3 pretty nice 6420 deeres selling in Pangburn online. Sale ends on Thursday if you're interested. Witcher Auctions from Wynne is selling the equipment for an estate.
