[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1287598, member: 9096"] I heard for an average, use 40mph to convert hours to miles.. so 5000 hours would be 200,000 miles. On a lousy vehicle that's the end of it's life, on a good one it's middle aged with lots of life left. Honestly, replacing an engine is the cheapest thing to do, transmissions, final drives, brakes, steering system, hydraulics etc all get much more expensive really quick. If I'd find the tractor in a model I wanted that was well taken care of but had some engine disaster, I'd probably pick it up because I can get it dirt cheap and have it running for $3000 in most cases.
