Price Check I currently have a quote MF 1643

[bironacad]

I currently have a quote:

MF 1643 or Boomer 3040.
FACTORY CAB
6' FEL
6' FRONT SNOWBLOWER
7.5' HOE
5' HD ROTARY CUTTER
BX42 WALLENSTEIN CHIPPER

72 MONTH ZERO FINANCING $50,000

Do you think this is a good deal?
The New Holland dealer quoted $54,000 everything the same except for a CTV transmission. He thinks he can match the MF offer.

Sound like a good price. Ull be real happy with the MF. The 7.5'hoe im guessing is a backhoe

 

[ff1221]

Go with the Massey, nicer cab, Hydro is bullet proof, CVT is wrought with problems, besides red is way nicer than blue, and it looks like a great price.:thumbsup:

Yes backhoe, lol, I did not include the HST tax $5,600 yikes, but I am thinking it is a good deal too, just needed some conformation.

 

[charleyfarmall]

Sounds pretty good. Does the hoe fit on the cab model? I'm thinking of getting a 1652 with cab and getting rid of my 7ft tayor 3pt hoe in favor of the massey hoe.

 

[bironacad]

The 1500 did not have a cab option and would only take the 6.5' backhoe where the 16oos with cab can use the 7.5' backhoe. The backhoe is not operated from the cab but a seat at the back so would not interfere with the cab.

Correct except the 1540's and up had a cab option.

Only the 1533 1548 1552 & 1560 had the cab option, the 1540 was a turboed 1533 only available in platform, the cab is available on all 1600 series.

Just what I was told at the dealer perhaps something has change, lol.

I thought you could get a cab on a 1533. I remember my dealer telling me this

Is the Massey Dyna-QPS a CVT?

Has there been problems?

No, it's the Power Shuttle with the added ability to shift up and down within a range (4 gears) with the push of a button.

 

[Gary Fowler]

Why not just upgrade to a 1652 for just a few dollars more.

Sorry Massey Ferguson guys went with the New Holland 3045, signed my life away on Monday. I got more bang for my buck. The 3045 was an easier to operate tractor, go figure. No handles to pull for four wheel drive, no levers for ranges shifts, no having to nudge the pedal to get it into a different range and CVT transmission that is more fuel efficient to boot. The cab was the best in my opinion over Kabota, JD and MF, mind you the MF Cab was pretty good. They all were nice to drive but I got a excellent deal with the New Holland.

I too wanted to buy a New Holland when I started out. I get a supposed "employee discount". I felt the MF was much higher quality in my own comparison. I also couldn't get past the 3045 being discontinued and NH's relationship with the manufacturer going down the tubes. I felt a screwing on parts coming.

Me and my cousin could not get past the smallish rear axle with no cast housing on the 1635 we test drove. The John Deere 2035 had a more impressive rear end and was a smaller tractor. The 1635 also made a whine in high range which sounded like there might be a problem with hydraulic cavitation. This may have just been this particular tractor however the dealer had three to choose from and this is the one he let warm up inside over night before bringing it outside for a test drive.
Well as long as we are both happy

Might work out to your benefit, Agco/Massey is looking at acquiring New Holland/Case, so you might be buying parts from your local Massey dealer anyways.

 

[the6shooter]

Agco already owns Case. but he could have gotten a better deal on that nh since they are in with LG. with the LS. the LS and NH look the same too.

Agco does not own case. Fiat does.

 

[KWentling]

Agco does not own case. Fiat does.

And Fiat is not interested in selling Case/NH.
