    my dads construction company purchased 4 used 350d's last year and like them. the operators prefer them over the Volvo a35d's more horsepower and better ride. they have put like 2500 hrs on them and the only major problem was a transfer case failure and it was covered parts only under a recall by the factory, that never happens! he is at least the second owner of these trucks and they are like 5 or 6 years old..........theironoracle

    I have one JD 250C . Bought it with about 5900 hrs on it . replaced engine and had transmission checked out at 6700 hrs . it lacked power before engine change but its a totally different truck now ! If you can buy them right ok and if not i would look at the Deere D trucks !
