They generally figure with construction equipment in daily use, 2000 hours per year is not unusual. Re the prices, one time in 1999, I saw at a dealer, a circa 1980 Ford 1710 4WD with loader with 12,000 hours on the clock and they were asking $9,000 for it. I meanm, Ford is a good tractor, but nine grand for anything that size with twelve thousand hours is a lot. I think that small tractors cost lots more per pound than the big ones.
