DK 55 w/ Loader pricing?

kcfarm · Feb 8, 2011

My local dealer, Victor NY, quoted me $33,000 for a new DK55 with front loader. Does that sound like a good price?

I will be trading in a 1980 2WD John Deere 2240 (No loader). He has not looked at it yet. Anyone know what would be a fair trade-in value?

Thanks.

Sounds very high to me. Check Tractorhouse.com for comparison. Also shop Wallace for the Kioti built, Bobcat equal. He is extremely competitive with pricing, and his personal support of the brand is matched by no one that I know of. Where are you located, and what dealer quoted that price?

Did you price out a cab or rops?

No cab, only roll bar.

Well at that price he should be giving you a premium for your trade!
I have a new Bobcat 50hp Hst cab for less than that price.
I know the 55 is a bigger chassie and has a self leveling loader but that's seems like ALL THE MONEY!
