[architect]

Also purchased on Saturday, eMax 25, fel, 60" mmm, backhoe, 12" bucket, thumb, and quick hitch and 48" tiller. Tiller and hitch were less than $2000, very heavy duty. Should have next week, they need to order thumb. Will photo with my Kubota B2920, eMax and B2920 have same lift capacity with fel.

Sweet!
Just curious, is the bucket thumb on the BH hydraulic or static? Pictures? I've been contemplating adding one to mine. Dunno if I need it or not yet really as I just got my backhoe, and have only pulled one stump with it so far. I may build one just because I can... he hee!.

my price was for eMax 25 with FEL, Backhoe, Thumb, 12" bucket msrp 60" MMM $25,205.
Cash price $23,189 -$600 -$1000 = $21,589.
Rock Bottom Pricing $23,189. - $1000 = $22,189

I just came back from my local Mahindra dealer. Was quoted on the same package (eMax 25, Bucket, Backhoe/Thumb/12", 60"MMM) $26,550. I believe I was quoted list price. I didn't bother to haggle with the sales person because I didn't have a reference point...but now I do and I'm ready to discuss pricing. Tell me, on your pricing, what are the various discounts you are noting that are $600 & $1,000? Also, what is driving the different price between the "cash" price and "rock bottom"?

OK, it took me a few minutes to spot it, but I now see that "Value" pricing @ 0% incurs a $200 penalty to increase from 60 months to 72 months, and a $500 penalty to increase from 60 months to 84 months. $500 over 84 months is an effective interest rate of 0.6%. If they just sold it that way it wouldn't make customers feel as though they are getting scammed.

Gary, they leave it to the dealers to package the financing anyway they wish. It is tricky. In theory I could just price everything at 0/84 and tell people there is no cash discount and it is free money. That would make a lot of folks happy, but would not be fair to the cash buyer, in fact the cash buyer would just go elsewhere. I can price everything at cash price and then show clear add-ons for 0%, but folks really do not want to be told that 0% actually cost them, they much prefer to just know that the cash buyer gets a discount and to think in terms of discount vs no discount as opposed to looking at a cost increase for 0%.

I like seeing customer input on this sort of thing, it helps the dealers to try to figure out the best way to package the programs.

I picked up an emax 22 the other day with a FEL. Was like $13,500. Nice little machine. Only have 4 hours on it so far but hooked up a 3ph post digger with a 9" auger and it works great. Been moving manure and grading, no issues. 4 wheel drive works great even with R4 tires in the mud.
