Don't let these guys scare you off !! I have a 4020 gas and love it for what I do with it.You have to know what you want one for.I wanted a tractor that would start easy in cold weather to blade the drive,pull stuck trucks up the hill,put a loader on to use for various lifting and moveing jobs most of which I fire it up do the job and put it back away when done.Lucky if it runs an hour.Lots of starting and stopping. I couldn't ever see running a diesel this way as they are better for hard work.This gasser is up to the hard work when needed. I have done several all day land clearing digging loading jobs,nice to have the power when needed.On those rare occasions of hard use by me it will really suck down the gas,but these are rare for me to use it this much.Not sure how long I've had it 12years maybe ? Paid $5500 back then and it had a wide front end.Had about 5500 hours now it has 5900 ? so you can see I don't use it much.I would deduct at least $1000 for a narrow front end over a wide.I'd say their price is close to good,as long as it runs allright.Biggest problem on them is that aluminum square box looking Marvel Schebler Carb.Hard to get the off idle and acceleration to work right. Hopefully it has been changed over to the much better Zenith cast iron carb.
