Gonna try to keep this short and as unbias as possible.
Bought a skid steer at an online auction for my husband's birthday. Not a mechanic but I knew what options, hours, and specs he wanted. Was listed as 2 speed and smooth rumning, no leaks, smoke, or known issues. Got it home and literally locked up on one side, lights went blinking, and started smoking. Now it won't start. Found that joystick for 2 speed is option is not present and internal wires were rigged together haphazard-like. I know there's no warranties, however the listing was misrepresentive and listed options that were not correct. Paid $9,200 plus tax so this cost over $10k and ruined my husband's birthday in the process, of course. Any legal recourse or is this just a tough lesson learned?
