Price Check BX23 Pricing

[Bill_BX23]

I'm using the extra money to pay off a 17.49% credit card. Also, at the same time I'm getting rid of a Van loan ($350/mo) and a signature loan ($230/mo) . With the extra savings per month I can accelerate payments. Overall I should come out about the same. Also, the credit union payment automatically comes out of my paycheck (before I get it) so I don't have to think about the payment.

Another thing is the relationship with the credit union. I can just call them up and tell them I need some money and all they ask is "how much"? With the Kubota credit I'd have to fill out the application, wait on them to approve it, etc.

Not sure if the credit union would want to finance only 10% of the tractor. They might make me put it on a signature loan at 13.25% interest.

Bill.

Another Newbie here with a lame question on credit since you all seem to be discussing this as part of the bx23 issue. does kubota send you a payment book?

 

[gsxr1100]

yes they will. And they will send more envelopes then you need! I pay online (through my bank) so I toss the checks and envelopes out the window.

If you go thru Kubota credit they will send you a payment book with stubs for each month's payment. All the details are right on the stub - payment amount, due date, etc. They even send you the envelopes to mail the payment in. And unlike other financing I have used before their payment stubs actually fit in their envelopes properly. Kubota credit appears to have their act together.

Depends on the area of the country you are in - when I bought my BX23 last July it was $16,400 - that was with a high amp alternator, filled tires, a toothbar for the FEL, and a 50 hour service kit. I did not get the MMM. At the time I could have saved about $500 by buying from a dealer out of state and getting the tractor delivered but the dealer I bought from had a very good reputation and has treated me well so far - I preferred the dealer relationship to the $500 savings.

*Is there any difference in the physical size between this and the standard amp alternator?

***What was the price on this deal?

 

[jim_wilson]

Not really sure - I have never specifically looked at BX23 with the regular alternator and compared it to the high amp on my tractor. You might post a question asking some of the other people here on tractorbynet - I know there are at least a few who have upgraded to the high amp alternator so they would have seen both.

The alternator is significantly larger than the original Dynamo.
