I have visited or talked to 5 different dealerships (JD, Mahindra, Koiti). All of them refused to budge on their prices. Literally not a dime lower. Every dealer has told me they have had record sales for the past 3 years. Not sure if this is the case in every state but here in AL and S. TN tractors are selling like hotcakes. I kind of believe them as my local federal land bank has sold record land for the past few years. They more than doubled in new land loans last year. What's up with record tractor and land sales in this economy? If I took a guess, people are tired of losing their money in stocks, homes, mutual funds and savings -- so why not invest in land and buy yourself toys such as the tractor you always wanted.
I ended up buying a Kioti DK40SE with FEL but at the orginal offered price, just under 20K after taxes. I wonder if anyone is having any luck in negotiating a lower price than the initial offer. Thank goodness Kioti was offering a free Front-End Loader.
