It was a little Oliver 4wd tractor. Looked like it might have been made in Italy. I would guess in the 30hp to 60hp range with a loader for $2500.00. Unique looking and must have been a great deal. I wish I would have wrote down the model number.

The tractor looked similar to this but smaller. Might have just been the photo.

I don't think I've seen an Oliver I didn't like the looks of...but THAT would be a serious tractor for $2500.

I think the one Chris showed was a little smaller, but still it was nice. The bigger tractors tend to go cheeper than the compact tractors because of the difficulty of moving them. The regular person can get a big truck and move a compact tractor, the big tractors require a CDL and big expensively taxed trucks. I almost bought a full size loader, except my other half convienced me I shouldn't. It would have cost me $100+ to move it to other locations, thus it would have been only in one yard.

This is exactly the reason that I looking at selling my 850 Ford and picking up a Yanmar. Every time I have to move it out to the farm it is a real pain. I would rather take a couple hours longer with a smaller tractor than have to move the Ford.
