It is a nice tractor and I'd like to have it but it's a little far from me and I don't think my wife would green light it.

I did get a tickle out of this though:

"THE TRACK CLEATS HAVE 1 1/4" WEAR SURFACE
LEFT WHICH IS GREAT FOR PAVEMENT WORK."

There's a little salesmanship in all of us. I know I like to knock down the high spots in my paving with a D9 anyway... :peep:

Please educate me. In the Diesel 40 pictures there is one picture with both the pony crank and a crank stuck in the main engine. What is the main engine crank for?

The crank is used to roll over the diesel engine when adjusting the valves.
