Purchased a X585 in June and it has 35 hours on it. Bought a Johnny Bucket Sr. and have used it alot. There has been times when it would be nice it would be to lift higher than the JB Sr can. A 3 pt would be nice also. The cost of adding a loader and PTO/3pt. to the X585 would be around
FEL/weight $3300
PTO $715
3pt. $465
Total $4480
I went to a gealer to see if trading for a 2210 w/FEL would be less expensive. This is what he quoted
2210 w/FEL $14700
X trade-in - $8500
Total $6200
This doesn't include the money already spent for the Johnny Bucket which may have some resale value. Most important it doesn't take into consideration the depreciation loss of $2500.00 on the X /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
I would like to have a tiller eventually for garden and also for some landscaping.
If adding attachments to the X585 weren't so high this would be a moot point. Whadda think?
