So i found alittle 4100 the other day. Its in good shape(7 OUT OF 10) WITH 465HRS. Now im just wondering what its worth? It has the factory loader(53" quick detach) and a quick hitch(3 Point) with a JD 467 tiller. Now its a hydro MFWD and like i said in average shape. It also has a weight box, 6' landscape rake. It also has calcium in the rear tires too. Now i have some concerns about it. The top link mount for the 3 point hitch has been broke and brazed back togther(my guess is bouncing to much). It also has a ripped boot on the FWD drive shaft under neith. I also felt the front wheel bearings have some play in them. Now i also noticed that the front tires are worn a bit more than the rears,which leads me to belive that he had alot of weight on the front and that he was on pavement alot. I was also thinking that he was using the tractor for more than it could handle cause of the weight box and calcium in the tires. Now its an older man that owns it in town and he said he used it for general landscaping and cutting grass. Now i currently own a Yanmar 155D and was lookin to upgrade to this. He is asking 15,900 Canadian but said he would take 15,000.
Now i have called 3 JD dealers and they have all told me book value on the tractor with loader is 7,000 canadian.
Used tiller 1500.
Rake 750.
Weight box 250.
quick hitch 500.
Now this is equal to around 10,000. Now that seems more about right but the guy is kinda set at his price. Now what should a guy do, offer him 10k or just keep lookin. I would like something newer and with hydro so my Girl friend can use it and such. Any suggestions would be nice.
Thanks
