Just picked up my 2015 gc1705 with loader and 60" belly. Ace Equipment in Blackshear Georgia $13,800 and he threw in first service. I traded a 2013 mf 1526 with no loader. I needed a mower and the 1526 was really too big forwhat I needed.
Not a fare comparison here. First, you bought a GC1705, I bought a GC2400 which was a more expensive base tractor compared with the GC1705. There was a smaller price difference between the GC2400 and GC2600 than there is between the GC1705 and GC1715. They took some cost out in the redesign to make the cost difference more noticeable. Second, you're in a much less expensive area of the country than I am..lastly...The thread is 2 years old...
I know you'll love your tractor, I love mine, So start your own thread, over in the owning/operating (since you've already purchased it), you'll get a lot more interest than tagging onto the end of a thread which hasn't been posted on in 2 years!
