I'm looking at a 340 util w/loader. Has TA and power steering. I did a bunch of searching through old posts here so I've got a good idea of what I need to look out for (the steering). My question is, what would the loader be able to lift? I'm looking at 1,000 to 1200 lb round bales, about 3 a month. Not too worried about brute force needed to steer, but I'm more worried about busting the front end down to ground level. Also, thestandard question, whats it worth? I saw a book at the local tractor supply that listed it at around $2000 depending on condition and all. I know it's not in the best of shape, and the owner will give me a good deal, but I need a ball park price. Also comes with fast hitch blade and mower (which I would sell). Thanks for any info you can give. Aaron
