Overview
This video walks through a real Craigslist find, a low-hour John Deere 1070 listed without a loader, and works through the actual economics of adding one. Mike checks whether the hydraulics are already plumbed, explains why that detail is critical, reports real prices he got from dealers ($3,500 for an aftermarket loader), and lands on a bottom-line number. Useful for anyone weighing a loader-less used tractor purchase.
