Just got back from an auction. Wasn't looking for a tractor but they had a JD 955 with 960 hours with 70B loader, 72 inch MMM, and soft cab. Guy got it for $9600. Seems like a good deal. Just curious if it was.

Edit: It was a 1995 model

That is a good deal, but it might have gone a lot higher as soon as you raised your hand!

Not a bad price, as long as it was in good condition. I have always felt the JD "55" series tractors were arguably the sexiest compact tractors ever made. I still hope to own one one day !!!

I recently purchased an early 90's model JD 955 with around 800 hours (or so the meter says) and 70a loader for around $7000. It's not pretty (paint is peeling from rear fenders and center console and footrests) but mechanically it is pretty good. Considering the price of other tractors I looked at, this seemed to be the best deal. Time will tell.
I'll be using it mostly for bush-hogging fields in summertime and misc. loader work.
I don't want to hijack this thread, but would like to thank those that helped me decide what tractor to get. I was ready to buy a 2305 until kind folks on this site made me realize it wasn't the right choice for what I needed to do.

I would love to buy a JD955 but can't find any in Washington or Oregon that don't cost a fortune.

Anyone see one for sale out here let me know-I'll be happy to make it worth your while!

You did real well!

I was looking at an 855 with a loader and backhoe at one point in the 90's but Yar was way too small and the unit had a lot of hydraulic leaks, it was a fixer upper but the rentlal firm still wanted a lot for it at that time $9000 or so. And this was in 95 - 96 or so.

A dealer has two 955's in on trade from a military branch. He says TLC is needed, both have 800-900 hrs. One has a 70A loader with Unk make cab and wood doors. The other has Cozy Cab with heat, lights, wipers etc. but no attachments. It had a broom when it came it but dealer removed it. They were used for sidewalk and driveway maintenence on the base, sweeping, salt spreading and snow removal. Both being sold as a pair for $10,500 or $5895 each. The dealer loaded them on his trailer for pickup and they moved on their own. Deal or No Deal? Make one good one out of two? They are too far for me to just go and check them out. I am going to have someone look at them for me and take pictures. Dealer has a lot of calls coming in on these because of the price but no one locally seems to be interested. He says that the closest caller to him is about 100 miles away. I told him if I was only a 100 miles away, I'd be there in a jiffy just to see what they looked like and bring my trailer just in case.

I love auctions[farm] they are quiet addictive. I have noticed if there is a loader on a tractor you can pretty much double the price.
