I know this is a touchy subject, I read the rules, just hope I didn't miss anything.
So I'm new to the forum, and very new to Unimogs. I have research them to the point I decided to buy a FLU419 instead of a backhoe to do all the work on my property. ie: septic system, foundation, winter snow removal, etc. etc. I had to wait on the sale of my house before purchasing. As soon as my funds were available there are zero auctions out there with them for sale. The prior three months or so there were hundreds. Can anyone shed any light on this. Is it seasonal? Or just the way the cards fell?
Also, the price differences between auctions and private sellers is massive. 4 to 10 times more. Are these units that are sold at auction usable? Or do you have to drop 5k-10k or more into them before they are a reliable unit?
I hope I didn't cross any boundaries with the rules. Just trying to understand!
