Opinions on this L5740

Does this look like a reasonable deal for this machine?

2010 L5740 w FEL (144 hrs)

2010 Kubota HS5740 like new 144hrs

Can't say for sure in your area, but here that wouldn't be for sale long here. I see the filters have been changed and the hours are really low.

Any idea what would be a good offer on it?

Go price its replacement the L6060 with exposed hoses and tier IV engine to see why the price is still so good on a used tractor.

I'd go look at it ASAP if you want it. It should sell quickly.

I think I will try a little work on the price but it sure is a very clean looking machine. Just wondering if it would be better to pony up and get a new one under warranty.

Sounds like a heck of a deal. The values of the 40s have dropped since the 60s came out. My 2011 L5740 HSTC-3 purchased in March, 2011, listed for $46,030 with loader and remotes, was discounted to $39,900. The L3710 I traded in had dropped 30% off original purchase price in 10 years of rugged use. This tractor looks like it was only used on Sundays by a little old lady to level her driveway, a very good deal if you are looking for an open platform.

Thanks for the input, have to agree looks really clean and very lightly used. Going to go look at it this weekend.

About 3 months ago, I bought a 2011 L5740 HSTC 3 (cab) with 292 hours for $32,000.

I traded a 2009 L5740 HST (no cab) that I had bought about 1 year ago with 475 hours on it. I bought it for $20,500. And I got $20,000 on the trade, but I had put about $2500 of improvements on it.
