- JD 2305 & 4720/400cx/BH448
I'm in the process of ordering a new JD and am told by dealer that I'm getting a 7-8% discount from MSRP...but once freight and set-up is calculated in...I'm back to just under MSRP per the JD build site. I read about other posters getting 10-20% off MSRP...is that inclusive of freight and set-up? The JD I built on the website with accessories, etc. is a 4320 w/400cx, 448BH, ehydro, air seat, and a number of other options comes to approx 40, 350 and the quote is just under 40K. All the equipment will need to be ordered, so it's not distressed inventory. Anyway, anyone else have similar experience? I'm told that JD tightened up the dealer margains and there is not as much room to play. I want a good relationship with a good, respected local dealer and would prefer not to be known as a haggler where everyone rolls their eyes when I show up for parts, service, etc.
