    Why isn't anyone talking about the Deutz Fahr 5080d?

    Yeah, there just isn't much detail or info online about these, it's a bit concerning. I do have to buy the attachments with the tractor, will have the numbers from the finance guy there on Monday ($15k down/5.4x%@5 years or a 5-year lease/residual % TBD). I would love to go out and buy the...

    Why isn't anyone talking about the Deutz Fahr 5080d?

    Thanks for all the great feedback, I have decided to buy the 5080d. It has a nice Stoll loader on it. Unfortunately, after the local dealer (1.5 hours away) said they had one, after I got there they told me it never arrived and when it does it sold. All that said, I found one in Washington...

    I don't have a a Fendt dealer/service in my area and the $55k price point is likely below what a Fendt costs for a 75hp unit. Thanks though.

    Why isn't anyone talking about the Deutz Fahr 5080d?

    I was about to order a Yanmar TY359C ($52K) and stopped by my local tractor store and saw this 5080d. It was about $5000 more but it is a 75Hp tractor vs. a 59hp in the Yanmar and comes with a lot of higher-end features. I could really use the larger tractor but I can't really find my chatter...

    Sales tax question

    Might be a dumb question but my local dealer here in Idaho doesn't really have the Yanmar model that I am looking at so I have a quote from an out of state dealer (OK) and they are telling me I don't need to pay sales tax when I buy through them. Do I owe sales tax to the State of Idaho after...

    Box scraper vs. rear blade for this type of road work

    I am buying a YT359C and have about 1.5 miles of forested, steep, hilly dirt road to maintain in the summer and winter. I will be creating a lot of in-slopes, and widening/improving in many areas and will likely cut a few new roads in as well. With that said, I am trying to figure out what...

    Box Scraper  Recommend box scraper with hydraulic scarifiers

    I am buying a Yanmar YT359 (59hp) and have about 1.5 of dirt road (much of it in-sloped) to work on and would appreciate a recommendation for width of the unit (7', 8'ft?) and what is the best unit to buy. I have heard of a few and a dealer packaged the Yanmar with one from Modern Ag. Any...

    Replacement tractor

    I am looking to buy a YT359C in the next week, any factor options/adds that you wish you had ordered when new? Anything you don't like about it? I can't afford Kabota, looking at LS but really love what I see in the Yanmar.
