Hi........

Looking at a Deere 570B motor grader for snow work and rare road repair work !

Found one with almost 16,000 hours on the engine meter. Seems like a lot of hours. It has a 6059D...non-turbo...engine. Machine appears to be really well maintained...1994 model. Should I stay away from it because of engine hours ? Get an oil analysis by a Deere dealer ? Local technician quotes about $6000 for an in-frame rebuild without any crankshaft issues.

Any common problems with other components of the motor grader ? Transmission ?? See brochure for the model.

Thank you for any and all advice !!
