Price Check Buying First Tractor - considering a Mahindra 3016 TLB package.

[Sysop]

I agree OP got a bit of a high price on that 3016. I never priced the 3016 in my shopping, but what you've been quoted is not what I would call "significantly cheaper" than what I paid for a new 4035HST and a pile of implements a few months back... At the price they've quoted, I agree with Tom the grapple install should be included as part of the dealer prep.

Thanks for the input everyone, I've got a updated quote now.

3616 HST with loader and a woods bh80x with the hydraulic thumb, mid PTO Kit,
Everything Attachments wicked grapple (60") and 3rd function valve
quick attach three point hitch, 6' box scrapper and a 6' rake,
with dealer prep and delivery.

$33,995.00 at the 0% for 72 months.

Feeling pretty good with this one. Any thoughts.

And if you haven't seen the Everything Attachments Wicked Grapple you have to check out the what not to do with one video on you tube.
unbelievable the abuse they put the prototype through.

You might want to research a bit more on the mid mount mower. I know there are a few people on here that are not happy with it. Also, when I was pricing the 3016 I was able to save a lot of money by going with a rear finish mower instead of a mid mount mower.

Hey Cletus, I did some looking around and talked to the dealer, im better off spending the money on a riding lawn mower, so I am next spring.

Maybe better, but still seems high to me. It looks like mostly they tossed in the box scraper, rake and quick attach 3pt in exchange for the mid mount? I am not knowledgeable in Mahindra pricing but seems high from what I have read.

Hi Tom, I did upgrade to the 3616 from the 3016 on this one with the Woods BH80X backhoe w/ the hydraulic thumb instead of the Mahindra. All the dealers here in CT are within 100 bucks of one another on the machines.

Hey Roger.

I have spent a lot of time on the EA you tube channel. I requested All the attachment from EA. I checked out your you tube channel. The led lighting on the rops is killer.

Sounds like you will be set if someone tells you that is a good price or not. Now would be a time to a add a cab to it Thanks about the LED lights on the ROPS.

Sounds like a great setup. Gotta say I'm jealous. So is the dealer going to order the stuff from EA and finance it in with your loan? I didn't know they would or could do that. If so, I'll definitely have to check into that when I'm able to get my new tractor.
