Most likely the website is "slanted" towards the 5xx3 series for two reasons:
1. There is more %margin in the 5xx3 series than the 5x25 series.
2. They can post a price that is competitive against the other companies' offerings.

They are in a win-win situation. If they get you in the door based on price, they can always upsell (either to a higher tractor model or accessories). If you decide to buy the 5xx3 series, they win due to the higher %margin.
