Still have the second Super M, the second 3020, and the Ford. All the others went to new owners for significantly less money than I had in them, so I’m accustomed to looking at my tractor purchases as a moderately expensive source of entertainment and education. I think I did okay on the latest 3020, but I suppose I’ll find out for sure if I ever decide to sell it. :)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Dean Vinson<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>Saint Paris, Ohio<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'>From:</span></b><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif'> AT <at-bounces@lists.antique-tractor.com> <b>On Behalf Of </b>asouth42@embarqmail.com<br><b>Sent:</b> Thursday, May 30, 2024 5:50 PM<br><b>To:</b> 'Antique Tractor Email Discussion Group' <at@lists.antique-tractor.com><br><b>Subject:</b> Re: [AT] AT Digest, Vol 74, Issue 3<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Eddie, I feel your pain. But, none of us wants to pay more than we have to for our toys. It’s a catch “22”. I almost always end up selling for less than I have in a tractor or an engine. Hence, I don’t sell many pieces. I have a 4 Mule Team Associated, circa 1917, that I’ve had up for sale for 20 yrs. I want a $1000.00 for it and won’t take any less. So, I keep dragging it around. Keep the smoke coming.
