Hey guys. I am looking at a Mustang 2040. It's about 4 hours away so I am wondering what to look for? If it's a good machine? Dependable? Easy to work on? What do you think? It has 1,100 hours 95% rubber. Runs great. used on a pea farm. $,9200. Any info would be awesome!! Thanks!

It's nice to see that your time machine is working. I bet the 2040 Mustangs are pretty radical, what are they asking for them? I hope this is a sign that the US is still the US in 2040 and hasn't been taken over by the chinese.
Sorry, i can't comment on them, never worked on one.
The hours are good, tyres too. I'd see how it starts and runs. Its a bit hard when its 4 hours away though.... You want to be sure

I just bought a '00 Mustang 2040 with 1,600 hours on it. I am the third owner. The first owner was a rental company (need I say more), and the second owner was a private contractor. It came with all of the manuals and repair & service documentation. The engine always starts on the first click and sounds great. The chains are quiet except for a little "clicking" sound when changing from fwd to reverse (listening for it) - says that the chains aren't too tight. Hydraulics are good and tight - no leaks. My tires have about 20% remaining. It needs bucket repairs - some straightening and new replaceable edges, a new seat, and a paint job. Paid $6k. I think you can do better. BTW, I'm very pleased with it so far.
