Way to go Jeff i think that was a great way to start the day,It is funny how you can start finding tractor money in your head just thinking about picking up another tractor.Got me for a little while.That is one great looking tractor you should be real pleased with it.Good luck on sale should not be to hard. Have a good one.---Ron B

Jeff, great message re "Powermax Affectionados". You had us all thinking for a few minutes before it really sunk in that if it sounded to good to be true it was. Good luck selling your 4041 - I wish I had room in the "stable" for it. Someone will get a great tractor there. Steve

Steve, Thanks - I hope I didn't cause too much "emotional stress" for clubmembers. Wouldn't it be something if there actually were some NOS PowerMax's still available? Looks like I'll be able to also throw in a 48" Woods BillyGoat brush hog on the 4040/1 deal, too. Just a little more incentive to purchase a fine tractor. Just make your wife park her car outside, Steve - you'll have room! Jeff

I went out into my garage and wept when I found out it was a hoax. Called in sick today (left a message). When I checked my messages, I realized I was self employed, and forced myself to go to work. All day I counted my blessings, I have three Powermax tractors, I have three Powermax tractors, I have th..... I feel a lot better now. Paul

Sorry, Paul. I know what would make you feel better - adding a 4th PowerMax to the collection! ;o) Jeff

Seriously, Jeff, you did have me going for a bit. Good job. Having gotten my 4041 for $400, I know that deals are out there, and your $2500 price was almost believable. It was the quantity that wasn't so believable. Would have had to be a HUGE Simplicity dealer, to stock that many expensive tractors in that period of time. Paul

Paul, I was going to put them up for $500 - but, figured I wouldn't catch anyone, then. My local Simplicity dealer only ever sold one PowerMax - in 1979 to a local high school. Of course, it's still in use today. Jeff

      Site programming updates were made 3/23/2024. As a result some things have changed including dues payment options. We will continue maintenance and work with technicians to regain credit card payment option and clear up minor challenges. On positive it appears attaching pictures is now easier. Good day. Gene
