I'm looking at new sub compacts, the local dealer is asking practically the same price for the 2012 1026r as the 2013 1025r. Any thoughts on which is the better tractor? The sales guy didn't seem to acknowledge that there was any difference between the two.

Looking to purchase a new 4320 and thought the price was a little high. Thoughts?

4320 with standard Cab/radio, ehydro, Turf tires, rear work lights. Suggested Price: 39,702. Dealer Quote: 37,350. (5.93 percent discount)
400CX Loader, no ballest box, 85in High Volume Bucket, loaded rear tires: Suggested Price: 7,063. Dealer Quote: 6,250 (11.51 percent discount)

Total Suggested: 46,765
Dealer Quote: 43,600
Percent Discount: 6.77%

BTW, I am from Massachusetts as I have noticed different areas of the country are different discount rates.

I have been hearing of people getting 15 to 18% discount. Thoughts on this price?

Thanks,

I have a 2008 JD 4320 with only 133 hrs on it. It comes with a Frontier GM1072E rear mower, Frontier SB1174 snow blower, Frontier 72" Box Blade, and a 400x loader. What do you all think is a fair asking price for this? :(

Our local tractor dealer (NH) has a john deere 1420 with a Yanmar Gas engine (odd?) and a 72 inch deck on it. 850 hours about, I heard that it came from the local university, which I believe.

I can't find much about these online, other then it's part of john deere's commercial series. My dad wants to trade our old cub lowboy on it. We mow roughly 14-15 acres twice a week. We currently have a gravely zero turn that has 700+ hours on it and we use a pull behind mower on our massey 240S - but we've been using the massey for brush hogging and such more and more, less finish cut.

Anyone have any reviews on the 1420? ]]> John Deere Buying/Pricing Foxtrot08 http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/283255-john-deere-1420-front-mower.html http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/283210-tractor-fit-460-loader.html Mon, 17 Jun 2013 01:11:07 GMT friend of mine had a fire and lost his tractor . the loader was off the tractor in another building. so we are on the hunt for a tractor to put the... friend of mine had a fire and lost his tractor . the loader was off the tractor in another building. so we are on the hunt for a tractor to put the loader on, a 4500,4510,4600,4610,4700,4710 we are in northern Il. ]]> John Deere Buying/Pricing waycoolmarine http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/283210-tractor-fit-460-loader.html http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/283201-l108.html Sun, 16 Jun 2013 23:25:06 GMT I went and talked to this guy about a month ago.

At that time he had an 8hp motor with a god awful cobble job on the exhaust. Now he has some old *** internal valve 12hp. The guy is asking $900. I offered him $300. Mainly for the rear end and the hood.

I just dont see this tractor being worth $900 when the deck belt is gone, it has a cobbled together motor. It doesnt even have "creature comforts" like the Electric PTO, or the larger rear tires. Now an L120 or L130 I can see being worth the extra coin.

Thoughts?

Since he didn't have one in stock he tried convincing me I needed a 65 HP (which he did have in stock). I was told the 5055E is not in production and I couldn't get one until the factory was all done making new cabs??? The price quoted for the 5065E 4WD with loader was $31,300. When I tried to negotiate a price I was told that this was the price.

I have bought tractors before but not a JD. Is this non-negotiation a common practice at JD dealers? Is $31,300 a good price for the 5065E? What would a 5055E cost? ]]> John Deere Buying/Pricing psj12 http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/283086-5055e-pricing.html http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/john-deere-buying-pricing/282963-tractor-sitting-outside-prior-purchase.html Fri, 14 Jun 2013 02:31:43 GMT Hi everyone. I'm about to purchase a 1025r with FEL and 60 deck. The tractor has been sitting outside at the dealer now for four to five weeks up here in Vermont. We've had hot sunny days as well as lots of rain. I've always stored my equipment inside, and the thought of this new tractor sitting out for over a month before delivery makes me cringe. What are your thoughts should I ask the dealer to order a factory fresh unit which will take a month or so, or just take this machine? How much weathering damage has been done?..

I have a couple of questions... Hi Folks,

I am in the process of downsizing my equipment from heavy duty commercial machinery to an X739, I believe.
I have a couple of questions for those who use this machine or a similar unit.

1. With a 60 inch HC deck, how does it cut? I am coming out of a deere 60 inch front mower and the cut is great but I am not driving over the lawn first before cutting.

2. How does the power flow work for the heavy wet oak leaves? Do I need a supplemental motor like a trac -vac?

3. Has anyone ever seen a way to attach an MC519 cart without the fixed hitch. I like to come close to the shrubs and you cannot turn away from the shrubs with the fixed carts like the MC519 and Cyclone Rake.

4. The 739 seems to come with a pretty heavy tread HDAP tire that looks like it would be great in the snow. How does it perform on turf? Will it be more likely to chew up a softer/shade lawn than a standard turf?

5. Anyone with experience with the "Original Tractor Soft Cab" that is available for this machine? I want to be able to remove the cab each spring and the Curtis like cab is bulky and cumbersome.

6. Finally, I heard the collection system on the Grasshopper Mower is outstanding. Anyone out there with experience with this setup. The reason I ask is that for the same price as the X739 the Grasshopper mower and snowblower seem to be an easy to use setup.

Thanks for reading....
Looking forward to the discussion.

I am finally ready to upgrade from my 4720 cab to the 5083e, I have fount several units and one dealer has a 2011 & 2012 equally equiped. The 2011 has about 160 more hours than the 2012, however the cost difference if about 5k less for the 2011. The 2012 still has 14 months warranty though and the cab looks nicer but not sure its 5k nicer. Were there any major changes that anyone knows of ????

Thanks

I"m going to sell my 72D auto connect deck and all the hardware and lifting hydraulics attached to my 3320. the deck has 6 hours on it. Yes i know i'm going to take a HUGE bath on this one but the cab tractor with all my trees just doesn't work very well. I picked up the 425 this spring with a 60" MMM and it works perfect for me so i figured i might as well sell it for what i can. the paint isn't even scratched on it.
I was thinking of listed it for 2500. What do you guys think? too low too high?
