Inquiry on price for 1026R

[jimed1]

I just paid 18700 for the TLB (1026R, H120, 260BH)- only other included option was a coolant heater

Don't mean to be nosy rockshaft, but was that a cash price or did you finance. I will be taking JD up on 0% for either 48 or 60 months and wondering if you were able to get that deal and 0%.

Thanks

Jim

I got my 1026 with 60d autoconnect mmm, canopy and hood guard for around $14,000 back in August. It was the last one my dealer had at the time. The salesman quoted me about $22,500 (I think) to include a loader and backhoe. I recently bought a 48" Taylor Way box blade for $450.

Dang , for a couple of thousand more you can buy a 2320... I admit it's the same engine ,but m thought is better hyd. I'm thinking of selling my 2305 and going with 2320. May have to change my mine and go with 1026r !!

you may want to test the 1026R before you decide on the 2320, I doubt you'll see any difference in the hydraulics between the two, in fact you may like the 1026R better

Although bigger, I have heard the 2320 is a little underpowered for its size and that the next step up from a 1026R should be to a 2520.

The 2320 is not underpowered for mowing. Mine has nosed its way through any grass I have sought to cut. My main issue with my 2320 is that it is a large tractor for mowing unless one has a very open area and pretty hard ground. When looking at my current 2320 v. my previous bigger machines it seems small, but when paired side by side with a 1026 it seems enormous. It does make depressions in the lawns that I mow unless I am really careful about changing my pattern EACH time I mow. With loaded tires (which I need for loader work), this machine and mower as configured weighs well over 2000 pounds. I try to remind myself that this is like running over the lawn multiple times with a small car. This is one reason for my looking at the 1026, similar engine power in a smaller package that mows a little better due to its smaller size.

Do dealers typically offer a better cash price if not financing? Since Deere isn't offering any discounts on the 1026R ( other than the 2 implement $500 off deal) it seems they don't care if you finance or pay cash, does that seem like an accurate assessment when pricing out a 1026R? Or should I still be looking for a better cash price?
