New Holland Workmaster and Massey Ferguson 4707 are nice machines too

It痴 been interesting to say the least.

On the Deere 5065E -
By the time you add a 3rd function, go global or SSQA and ditch the middle buster for a set of pallet forks it痴 right under 40k, even with the 都pecial pricing? Also it truly is a 49 PTO hp tractor.

On the M7060 -
This is a great machine but I would prefer it with the 12 speed. Once you add the upgraded tranny, 2nd remote, 3rd function, and a worklight it痴 above 40k.

I also looked at a Mahindra 6065 and that thing is a beast but the financing sucks and well.....resale is poor at best.

So I took another look at a M5660SUHD from Kubota. I was surprised to learn it痴 a 50 PTO hp tractor and has the same loader as the M7060. It can be had with a 3rd function, second remote, worklight, etc.. for the mid 30痴. I think that痴 probably the route I知 going to take for now but I値l keep ya all posted.

What I致e learned from this whole experience is a mid sized open station economy utility tractor will end up costing an average of 35k no matter which manufacturer I choose so basically it comes down to features and preference.

Titan Quick Tach Adapter|Fits John Deere To Convert Skid Steer <-- SSQA adapter $416 fits 520 loader
Titan 48" Pallet Fork Attachment Skid Steer Universal HD Pro Duty Tractor Loader <-- Pallet forks for $594. I got skid-steer style 48" adjustable forks for $650 from my Case dealer.
I paid $1500 for true 3rd function (they had to replace my factory loader handle which was only diverter function etc) and I think that was a little high

That would put you at $33,410 less the 2nd remote for the 5065E with PowerReverser. Sounds like Hutson's is over-charging for all the extras to make up for the base tractor promo.

Keep plugging, you'll find a good deal with one of the outfits down there.

Although I didn't price open-station machines when purchasing my RX7320 I would think you could get the Kioti offering for a little less than that. My cabbed version, with some added options, was $39,500. I'd expect an open station to be ~$6-7,000 less.

Not sure if Kioti is an option for you but you might call around to see what they can offer you.

If a dealer offered you a discount off a new unit that was a few years old would you take it?

My concern is that after 3 years of zero use the hydraulics would give me fits with seals and such. Faded paint isn't really my concern more mechanical issues than anything else.

Then again the discount could easily pay for a grapple or even an older square baler. The unit is under warranty and carries all the same stuff as if it was a 2018.

Thanks!

if its new and has a wty I would just make sure they can come out and service it as needed and not get charged for hauling if that is required - I wouldn't be afraid of it if I have a good dealer to work with - I wouldn't be too worried about seals/hydraulic issues - sounds like a very good option

look at the discount off list on this loaded tractor, aren't going to see this at the JD store I don't think.
Tractor has everything I like including the rear fender mounted three point controls.
How can dealers quote list price? Seriously gouging.

I got the same tractor, but with air seat, 3rd function remote, wheels weights, front fenders, radio, and 936x self leveling loader for $44900 here in Pa.

I’m working with Barlow’s on a 5660SUHD. I didn’t realize they were only 2 hours away from the property.

It’s night and day working with a good dealer. I would happily do business with them again. Super responsive and incredibly helpful.

I looked at every tractor brand sold in the US at the AG expo this week & I was extremely impressed with the MF 4707. Very well thought out and all the controls including joy stick were placed perfectly.

I used their online builder and wound up with a 75 grand tractor, gulp, hope they discount a lot...
Have both NH and Massey locally, as well as Deere and Kubota. LS is a hike but doable.
Italy, China, US, Japan and South Korea. That's pretty much the market, nice to have choices.

My problem is I've lost faith in my local Kubota dealer. Guy who owns Massey dealer is really nice, a p/t farmer,
faith driven and honest. When it's a pleasure to see someone, and they give you a great price, pretty hard to resist.
But when you have two or three good dealers, now you have to do your homework.

If I had known five years ago what I know now, I'd have bought an M Kubota instead of an L. Not going to make that mistake twice.
Have a baby Massey with turf tires for the lawn, looking for weight this time. The real issue to me is the local JD dealer willing to discount competitively. I told them awhile back they had not been very approachable and I was told promptly they absolutely agreed and were trying to change that. Well talk is cheap, and their tractors aren't.
