I bought a 72" 3 point finish mower last year; could it have been
stolen? I suppose, but there's just no way to know. I try to read
the seller, and I'm pretty good at that, in the end you have to
follow your your gut. The guy raised Wagyu beef and didn't need it
anymore. He did not set off any bells or whistles in my mind of
being a thief.<br>

<span style="font-family: helvetica; font-size:

the Kubota 2301. It was located right in the heart
of Providence, RI and the last place you would
expect a tractor. The tractor is a 2017 B2301 with
154 hours on it. The initial impression was that
it looked good. Closer inspection showed some
scratches on the hood and the holes in the
radiator screen. One of the headlights was also
cracked. It looks like someone ran into some sharp
brush which cracked the head light and poked holes
in the radiator screen. The bucket was straight
and the loader had no slop in it . The loader
picked up the tractor with no issues. The three
point worked as it should. Some negatives I saw.
The loader pins did not have much visible grease
out of the fittings. The next thing I noticed is
that the oil filter was still the original Kubota
grey color. I have been lead to believe that
replacements are white in color. The new owner
states that the original owner had the 50 hour
service done but I am suspicious. The biggest item
I saw was that when I asked for a
title/certificate of origin, he said that he
didn't get one from the previous owner. I am
almost positive that you have to have some type of
documentation for a machine like this to prove
ownership. Is there a way to determine if this
tractor was stolen? The new owner was also
concerned that he may have a "hot" tractor. If
there is a method or web site you can point me to
it would be greatly appreciated.</span>
