I think the Ebay preference engine is a hoot. When I look at the D17 ad above it says I might also like...

Been wondering how that tractor culd start up on its own down to Zero degrees and then maybe need a little ether to start.

My 17 diesel on the would start without ether down to 45 degrees but it had to have new batteries and cranked for several times. was best to plug her in any colder.

he says at the bottom it is the nicest he has ever owned, which is probably true.

The desription could have been a little better. I don't think it's a bad machine for the money; not like the buy paid way more than its actual value.
