I've looked at a 2004 lb1914 with loader and chipper (no need for chipper) with 200 hours. Two lk 3054's with loaders, one had a 5' bush hog (off brand). One had 850 hours the other was near 300. Both were in the 1990's. All of these tractors were around $7000. I didn't negotiate with the lb1914 because I think I want a little more tractor. The guy with one of the lk 3054 said he would take 6500. It's in decent but not outstanding shape, faded a bit, just looks a little dated. Ran well with no blow by or smoke besides starting.
I have 6 somewhat flat acres for a future homesite. It's on a lake, so I have 300' of frontage with a slope that is easily walk able. I have a small building and about 400 feet of gravel driveway. My current tractor a b7100 hst 4x4 doesn't have wloader and I have been wanting one since 2006.
I recently saw a ds3510 for $13,999, ($600 for delivery) on tractor house, I didn't think that was to bad of a price with a loader. I then saw a new 2011 ck35 hst with loader for 15999, close to home. I emailed local dealer and asked about a2012 ck 20hst because that would probably me more than enough tractor. He quoted 14,500 for it and 14799 for the2012 ds3510. I may not be able to get a agricultural tax exception because of a farm our family owns.
I am thinking the prices between the new and used is to close not to go new. I would've thought and hoped the ck20 hst would be more than $1500 cheaper than the ck 35hst. The ck35 is a year older but seems like much, much more tractor. Any thoughts or advice. I do have a mahindra dealer not to far away and a bobcat dealer. Thanks for the replys,
