JX85 Delivered!

Hi All,

I'm now both a NH and Case man. Dealer delivered my JX85 late Thursday night and I finally got to spend some time with the tractor today. Took some pics to share with everyone. Here's the tractor being delivered.

Here's one from today after working with the grapple a bit.

And another.

Testing the grapple.

Overall I'm very happy with the purchase. Takes a bit getting used to after driving the TC40D for two years. It has the 12 speed shuttle and I really like driving it compared to the hydro. My dealer is both a NH and Case dealer and I was originally looking for a TN or TL. The JX85 is a bit bigger than the TNs and a bit smaller than the TL (and less expensive). It has a turbo 238 cu and has plenty of power.

I know that aren't many JX owners but I think someone here has a JX75. Hoping there might be some other JX owners as well.

Thanks,

If you don't mind can you give a breakdown on pricing for your JX?

The JX was sitting on the lot and dealer said he only made a profit on the loader and disc mower. I paid $35.5k for the tractor (w/loader, two remotes, plumbing for grapple, link ends, 84" HD bucket, QA, radio), and $6.5k for the 616, 8' disc mower. Financed it all at 3.5% for 5 years. This is a mixed rate as the tractor was 3.9 and the mower was 2.9 or something like that.

I shopped around, but I like this dealer, they are large, close to home (10 miles), and have good relationship with owner. I can call them on Sunday to get a part if needed.

F'N Nice! Enjoy and congrats!

Congrats!!!
