Can load on your trailer."

I don't like that model with the pedal to work the head gate. Rough on the shin. It is a matter of preference, guess it depend on how much you need it and will use it.

Looks like a nice setup. Asking price is about half of what a new one wouldl cost.

The seller is certainly proud of it. The price seems kind of high.

I have a torch and welder. Seen 'em altered to a handle before.
I've seen lots of chutes for sale in the last few months here in E Texas--this has been one of the least expensive prieferts I've seen.

I've never liked this type (WW).

Too far for me to go, and I don't much like it either.

A good prieferet with auto headgate at local McCoys is $2800.

I've borrowed that model a couple of times as a buddy has the wheel kit for it. I was very happy with it. I would say that price is fair if everything works, nothing bent etc... A new one would be way over that price. With OBO included in the add $1,000 might buy it.

I like it. Take 8 100 dollar bills with you to look. I bet you get it.

Got there and they had sold it 1/2 hr before.
Got back home and saw it going down the main drag in the back of a pickup going toward Dayton. (or one just like it)

The pedal did not work the head gate. Pedal opened the side gate.

I paid $1300 for one (they were asking $1500) of the same model but in better shape. I sanded it lightly an repainted it. Some grease and oil and good to go. That one has the better head gate and Priefert will send you parts if anything is bent. As mentioned the foot pedal is for the emergency side gate. Very handy when you need it. Also has a foot pedal for the squeeze.
Keep watching craigs list. They come available regularly, especially in Texas.

Can't find a used squeeze here for any price. I woulda jumped all over that one if it showed up on cl here.

You can take any Prefert chute to their factory and they will completely redo it for $500 regardless of the shape it's in. We have done two in the last year and a half. You cannot tell the difference in one they redo and a brand new on aside from features. Just something to keep in mind if you can find one that's in bad shape and get it cheap.
