A trailer too? To carry the 55HP TYM tractor? What brand/cost please? And list the six impliments too if you don't mind, thenks. Congrats!

BTW, no dealer, TYM or other, is going to compete against themselves on fire sale pricing. They might as well give away their stock, at what Cabela's is selling left over inventory for....
You got a great deal- now go enjoy using it, and don't sweat the warranty details- it'll be covered, one way or another. Neither Cabela's nor TYM can risk leaving their customer's in the dust.

Here is all that we purchased:
Cabela's Cab LM55H (55hp hydrostatic), Brush Guard (no charge), Loader LD108, Grading Scraper GS1072, 7 x 20 Trailer (double axle), Rotary Mower RC1172, Quick Hitch (no charge),
Forward Rotary Tiller TL2060, Pallet Forks PF4048S and Landscape Rake LR2072.
400.00 Freight
450.00 Retailing Rigging/Prep
50.00 Doc Fee
ALL IMPLEMENTS ARE MADE BY WOOD EXCEPT FOR TRAILER
Grand Total (less $500 downpayment) - $ 38,252.18 ( No sales tax as we have an Texas Ag ID #)
For an extra $325.00 +/- we are having beet juice (don't know exact name added to rear tires for the weight) but that was not included when we first did the deal. The beet juice has been discounted as well.

The reason we went with the 55 HP is that we have a ton of dirt work and we have a lot of surface rocks (small to medium in size). We have been looking for over a year while trying to figure out our long range goals with property. The biggest thing we saw in threads and heard from neighbors is to not buy an under powered tractor. We did not want to make that mistake. In the Deere we were looking at the 4052M and the Kubota L5060 and also L5460. At the end of the day we were still going back and forth on those two brands.
I feel like we made the right decision for us, although I know it is somewhat of a calculated risk.

P.S. I just wanted to thank all of you guys. I am a female and this world is out of my norm. I am very excited to learn a lot more and am happy to be in the country. I am less of a couch potato and am outdoors more and I absolutely love it. Thanks again for all of the input. I sincerely appreciate it!

That sounds like one heck of a deal Kate. Good luck with it.

Kate, that seems like a great value you guys got! I didn't see it posted, so I'll write it: post photos! We get vicarious pleasure out of seeing nice new equipment that other folks will be putting to good use. You should be pleased with yourselves!

One question Kate? Did they have to ship to you? Or was it on site? The reason I ask is that my tractor was on site and they did not charge me any freight, delivery nor prep. In fact, delivered to me no charge, then picked it up, installed the belly mower (about 6 man hours of work according to the tech) and then redelivered to me for only the discount price of the mower(less than half of the retail price). You still got a bang-up deal...

My concern is the capacity of the 7 x 20' trailer and what you are going to load it with. What brand and capacity is it? I take it freight means they are delivering it to your door?
If not, what are you towing it with - truck/towing capacity, etc.?

I just got a price on a Cabela's 36 HP with front end loader & a 72" finish mower, geared with shuttle shift for about 21,290 plus tax. I was just curious what they would sell it for. The hydrostsat transmission was only $1000 more.

I would say that the $$ they paid for freight was what Cabelas paid to have the tractor delivered to them..Much like a car dealer will add freight to recover the cost for the car being shipped from factory to their lot
