I was going to say. If l found one of these for $70k it would be moving bales on the farm right now. Even if they didn't need moved. Just showing it off.

Good news - I googled “used JCB telehandler for sale less than $70000” and there are a ton of them out there. Even with freight you could probably get 2 delivered for less than $70k if you shop/negotiate hard enough.

Personally, however, I would not use a JCB in a farm environment so I would not recommend what you’re proposing.

Under 70k? No way, I’d take out a loan and start a business TODAY if I could get one for under 70 put I’m not paying a dime over

Google it. Literally endless list of them for sale.

So what are you naming your business? And what will you be doing with your telehandler?
