pricing M7040

[forgottenben]

Looking at a M7040, hydraulic clutch, one remote, 4x4, fel w/quick attach, canopy, grill guard and fluid in rear tires. kubota website price is 39,828. Dealer is quoting 34,459, which is a 13.5% discount off the website. I have multiple dealers around me, but this is the one I usually do business with. What should I be trying for for price? Thanks

That's a good price right there if it is the deluxe model (HD). You can offer less but don't expect the dealer to go much lower and keep the lights on.

The SU model is less desirable just because of the lack of bells and whistles. It should be several thousand less.

thats a good price i have a 7040sud fel 4x4 2 remotes loaded tires caster centers manuel tranny i paid around 30k try to get a thousand off of that maybe he will meet you in the middle say 500 more off

Sounds like a fair price. I am working a 6040 deal and currently I am 1500 cheaper with same features. I am trading in a tc40das so my deal between local dealers will be decided on trade in plus special consideration to dealer which I have best history with. I do plan to hit them for the second rear remote to close the deal. Good luck with everything!

[cmbertrand;
u know you can a front limted slip stand on the 7040 for 2k more then the 6040 if you need that

 

[sixdogs]

Does that include the factory rebate that is now going on? I don't recall the amount.

 

[case245]

the rebates are a thousand even on the M series

 

[cmbertrand]

My deal is without the 1k rebate b/c I am using the 0% finance offer. I thought about the 7040 and the fe limited slip but only one of those in the area and dealer is holding out on price. Was in Houston last week and stopped at two dealers to check prices for upcoming purchase and neither lot had a 70 or a 60 for that matter. Limited slip is not real important for what I use the tractor for. My 40d has been great but need extra hp for 8' cutter so I can cut down on seat time.

Not to steal thread but a quick question about upcoming purchase. Thought I saw some of the 1153 loaders with a curved lever and others with straight? Is one for cab tractor?

The curved ones could have been for a third function valve. When I added third function the new joystick had a different bend to it.

 

[case245]

i have a curved lever on mine it doesnot have the 3rd function valve

 

[curtisfarmer]

Anyone have any prices on a 6040 or 7040 with a cab? Thanks!

 

[case245]

is that for a tractor with fel 4x4 hydro tranny or mech how many rear remotes with cast centers 3pt lift assist cylinders with the pto kit the creeper gear kit

Depends on where you are at. There are "Harvest Lease" tractors available. Typically have 200-300 hours on them.
Qualify for the 0% 60 month program and still have warranty. I priced out a M7040HD with FEL $29K out the door

 

[case245]

border rat that only saves 6-7k over new i would buy new not someone elses junk

$6k is like doing away with a years worth of payments. And 300 hours would be 6 hours a day for 50 days. (I'm sure they run more than 6 a day)
Add on top of that a warranty and 0% financing.

Sounds like a sweet deal to me!

 

[cmbertrand]

I looked at the lease program units and the savings for a 70 or 60 hp was only 3000 bucks for 220hrs of light use without fel. If the unit would have been within an easy drive I would have given it more consideration.

 

[case245]

is that a full warrenty on the lease returns

I was thinking all the M's had the curve handle. 220hrs of drive it like you stole isnt worth the 3grand,who knows whos been on them,grinding gears and etc.Why would the hands take care of a lease tractor? Be something like buying a rental car...

 

[cmbertrand]

Yeah well these lease units were said to have only been used to pull carts and pto was never engaged...full warranty but still not enough money off for me to take the chance.

Not sure where I saw the straight loader levers but may have been a dif brand or aftermarket loader. Anyway, ready to be done with shopping and analyzing so head will quit spinning.
