ericschevy 0 #1 Posted December 19, 2008 I'm going to be picking up a running Raider 10 tomorrow for $180, Is this a good buy? There is a little rust and looks to be all original.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BairleaFarm 339 #2 Posted December 19, 2008 It all depends on where you live and how much your willing to pay. In my area id give 180 for any wheel horse that wasnt a rust bucket and mowed. Some people pay that and get a great tractor with good paint. Really all that matters is it a good buy to you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ericschevy 0 #3 Posted December 19, 2008 I think it is. It's complete and running. No mower deck though. I won't be mowing with it anyway, I use my craftsman for that... lol I base that on a few things though. I am constantly on the look out via craigslist and e-bay and you just don't run across them that cheap that offen. Not to mention I'm not familiar with the raider 10, that's why I ask.. $50 for the one in my avatar, that was a steal... :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HorseFixer 2,012 #4 Posted December 19, 2008 Some are a steal and some you pay a bigger buck for The cheeper ones (really good deals) you find somehow seem to win yer heart! They tend to average out over time. There will be a day that 180.00 may sound cheap after all wheel horses are scarffed up :hide: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to keep looking further away to find them. I'm going to have to drive nearly 150 miles to get this one.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
