Is THIS A Good Deal??

[Golfgar4]

I was doing a little surfing of various dealers in the area, and I ran across this "used" 6420 for $23,900.

Is this a deal that I should consider pursuing? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif I mean, it's not every day that you come across this size tractor in this condition for $23,900! /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif The ad says there is apparently no damage to the transmission or the engine.

And to think I was excited when I saw that our golf lovin' buddy was actually STARTING a tread in the humble JDBuying forum.... /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

Oh, oh! I didn't even think of that!

I'm sorry about that. I didn't mean to mislead anybody! I just thought it was so humorous asking over $20,000 for a burned tractor that I wanted to post it for you guys!

I'll be more careful in the future! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Well, you know what they say, "Nothin' runs like a Deere;" even if it was barbecued. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

It would cost a bundle of cash for a brand new hood, decals, rear fenders and the 1 grand seat they put in those tractors! Not cheap to fix by any means. Plus that steel for the FOPS/cab is probably weakend by the heat of the fire.

That looks more like a piece of Venison /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif.

GARY nice pics and to think they want 20 for it but then again JD has always been more expensive even the burnt ones. lol CAG

Yah fire damage is #1 hardest and most costliest repair.. a wire harness can run like 2000 dollars let alone all the junk u'd run into trying to fix.

Wonder what happen.. probaly electrical knowing all gizmos on that thing..

Well you got me with that headline - I thought you were finally pulling the trigger and bagging a Deere.... nuthin but an April Fools Joke... Very Funny! /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Take Care,

Well Steve, as I mentioned, I really didn't intend it as an April Fool's joke. I just thought the fact that a dealer thought they could sell a burned up tractor for $23,000 was a bit unusual.

Come to think of it, the fact that the dealer is TRYING to sell the thing is kind of a joke, isn't it? /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Very True... Sadly enough someone may decide they just have to have it!
