I had a/c issues on my 5083 when I bought it new. Anyway, hope you like your new tractor

Did you get it fixed?.. What was wrong with it? Was it difficult to diagnose?

 

[Trey318]

I got my dealer to check it out when they put my fel on. The issue with mine was that it had dye in the coolant, but ag-pro mershon said that was a rate problem

I too would not want DPF, or be among the first to endure teething problems.
How far away was it? Delivery is based on distance. I paid $900 to have my 6415 delivered about 500 miles.

I paid an individual $4.00/ loaded mile and it was about 117 miles..

What is fel?

 

[Zebrafive]

fel =front end loader

 

[RoyJackson]

Did I pay too much? Has anyone here owned one or a similar model and how well have you been pleased..Thanks

Asking if you paid too much after the deal is done is never a good thing...don't second guess yourself or invite others to second guess your decision. There's no going back on that decision and no use giving yourself any grief, warranted or not...

You will be happier without DPF. When it clogs up it can get expensive fast.
You did ok on your haul rate.

I am also very reluctant about paying for a dpf that I don't want and may impact long term reliability. I am trying to choose between a jd 3032e and a kubota b2650; I'm leaning towards the smaller less powerful Kubota because of the simpler and percieved more reliable emission system.

I was first looking at the Kubota before I got my 2014 5065E. I would say your instinct on the DPF is right and I hated how the Kubotas implemented it. They were ahead of JD in the Tier IV stuff as far as I know. A few of the Kubota dealers were hoarding some of older 7040s because it didn't have the setup.
