Hello John Deere owners!

As my sig suggests, I currently have a Bobcat that I am selling as it is a larger than my current needs and find that the new 1 Series would suit my needs as I am also selling my Craftsman garden tractor.

Would around $16k be a good price for tractor, H120 loader and 54D mower?

Thanks.

I ended up getting a Kubota, but shopped the 1026R pretty seriously. Best price I was quoted was $14,600 for the tractor and the H120 front loader. Didn't ask about a mower since I already have a smaller Deere for that.

1026r is definitely a really nice tractor. Best sub-compact IMO. If you go JohnDeere's Channel - YouTube you will see all the "rounds" of the JD 1026r vs the competition. You'll see some really nice features.

I would say $16k is too high though. A better deal can be found:thumbsup:

Also be sure to get the quick attach MMM, I'm not sure that the 54D is or not, but the drive over quick attach is sweet!

Thanks for the tip Gizmo - lots of good reading.

Martian - I probably should have mentioned that the pricing was for the autoconnect deck, 53" bucket, i-Match, the extra lights on the ROPS, and block heater.

I think the price is okay if the dealer is a good one. There are several things that can make a difference long term with how happy you will be and a good dealer is very important.

I would make sure you get any hydraulic option you may need included in the package to start with.

I'd like that price for all the options. They are excellent tractors!
