I\'ve decided my 4400 is too small, sooo!

What do you think about this one? (see attachment, but be forewarned -- the guy in the picture is me so you may want to have a bucket handy) Do you think this would be too much?

Here's another shot of just the tractor in case you weren't brave enough to look at the other one.

Now for the best part. This is belongs to my daughter's fiancee. We helped her move yesterday and he was showing me his toys. Farms and ranches about 2000 acres and lives about 45 miles from me. I told him that I'd work cheap and he said I can come play anytime I want. Told my daughter that if she breaks up with him, I'm tradin' her in and keepin' him./w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

In these parts it's just the opposite, Thomas. Those things are everywhere./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Well I am feeling a little better now. When I first saw your picture I thought "that dadgum guy is going to buy my tractor!!!"./w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif Then I saw that you were from Kansas. What a relief. I saw the dealers ad in the farm paper but I haven't had a chance to go over and look at it. It might be a little big for the 50 acres we have in cultivation but I really liked the look of it, Sure I might have to sell a couple of kids to make the financing work but we all have to make sacrifices./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

See, you're buying too small again! Step up to the 9400 and be done with it./w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif

Just out of curiosity. What does one of those things cost?

Re: I\'ve decided my 4400 is too small, sooo!

The J.D. Equipment Configurator shows a starting price on the 280 hp 9120 (they apparently don't offer the 260 hp 9100 anymore) of $127,365.00. The list of options and add ons is almost endless. How about a Xenon field lighting package for $1500.00 or a radar sensor so that you can get a true ground speed reading for $475.00. Or maybe you'd like a 3 point hitch for the bargain basement price of $11,202.00!! I'd hate to think what you could get one of these things up to in price.

The Base 9520 is $200k, The 9520T is $222k. It is possible to pay over $250k for a loaded tractor.

Re: I\'ve decided my 4400 is too small, sooo!

Yep, $250K plus some change....

I played with the product configurator last yes to price one out. If it was an option, I chose it!! Showed the results to the CFO. Her comment.... "What don't you understand about the word - NO!!" /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Pound for pound and horse for horse those tractors are a steal compared to new CUTs.

The Big Bud pictured in another post cost around $450k to be built as all Big Bud's were built by hand. Makes the JD's look affordable.

I sure wish I needed one of these! Can you imagine working on it?

"Uh honey, can I use the bathtub? I need to drain 100 gallons of hydraulic fluid."

I would miss the loader however...
