Local dozer prices, 70HP class

[northmiss]

I have had a hard time finding accurate pricing information on new dozers, so I thought I would post actual quotes as well as the delivery price on a dozer I just bought. These prices are for the MidSouth area from Memphis TN to Jackson MS. I was shopping for a narrow gauge machine with limb risers, rear and side screens. Deere quoted me 67,500 for 450H but dealer could no longer order machine and had to requote for 450J at $73,500 before tax and delivery. Cat ranged from $68,500 for D3G with Remco aftermarket risers and screens to $73,500 for Cat factory add-ons. Case quote 74000 for 650K but could not deliver until early 2005. I ended up buying a 75HP Komatsu D31-EX21A Komstat II hydrostatic machine which was delivered, with tax and weld-on heavy blade brush guard (as well as sweeps/screens) for $62,200, no question the best deal I could get, as well as the easiest dealer to work with. I post this information for whatever it is worth. I could find nothing like this when I searched the web.
Thanks

Thanks for the posting. I sure wish I was shopping for brand new, but just reading about it is fun!!!!!!!!!

Don't forget to post some photos of your new machine in action!!!!!!! We all love to see dirt being moved and shaped.

Attached is a JPEG of the dozer. I'm not sure about the sharpness of this photo.

Nice lookin tractor!! I'm yellow with envy!

Would you mind naming the dealership you bought it from? I like to keep my options open and Memphis isn't that far away.

Power Equipment Corporation is the company. Their memphis office phone number is 901-346-9800. I found them quite easy to deal with.
