Got quotes from my local JD dealer (KY) for my first tractor. Are these prices reasonable, or should I run away? Salesman says there's no more room for savings.
1025R TLB: $15,970
120R Loader w/bucket: $4,788
260B Backhoe: $7,662
Also getting radial tires, ballast box, 3rd hydraulic function on front end
Total: $29,115
60D MMM w/Load N Go: $3,270
AP10F 42" Pallet Forks: $1,000
AV20F 53in Grapple: $2,000
PHD100 Post Hole Digger 9": $2,000
Balance: $37,385 + tax
My use case: 1.6 acres. Needing to dig a lot of pipe to divert storm water and drains to a branch (we are downhill). Some wooded area to be cleared. Fence to be built. Grass to be mowed, of course. We estimate we could pay $23,000 (including the price of a lawn mower) to hire this work out and go with a lawn mower instead of a SCUT. But that's not as fun.
