BAD NEWS for the new DK45S & DK65S

wallace · Mar 29, 2005

This is a memo that reads "The new sloped front design and added standard features of the DK45S and the DK65S resulted in the necessity to raise the list price of these machines"
I guess it is not all that bad especially when you see and drive this new MONSTAR

A new memo just came out and the real reason why the price went up is because I want to buy one /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif: Just my luck

How much?

The list price went up over $1800 for the DK65s cab and over $600 for the 45s

After having tried out the new DK65S I'd say it's worth a good bit more than the older one. The changes are awesome, especially the new Perkins engine. It's a nice improvement. Not to mention the cab, tilting steering column and some other really nice changes, it's a step above an already great tractor.
I saw the prototype DK45S last year. If the changes the dealers recommended are on the finished product, it will be well worth the extra $600. That's the one I want! Well, I want them all, but I'll settle for the DK45S. John

Just closed a sale on a DK 65 S / cab / loader today...

The gentleman was "commenting" about the high price of machenery...
I showed him the fax about the price increase that he just beat.
He stopped his "comments"....
