JD new X-series

Don't laugh....there is actually such a thing as a TWO-stroke diesel engine. I read about them at howstuffworks.com. Pretty neat stuff.

Two stroke, yes.
Four stroke, yes.
Three stroke, I don't think so.

The prices are from Stan on Yahoo and Stan works at a JD dealer. He is a nice guy.

Thanks Guys.

If JD thinks people will pay $12,599 for the X595 - L/C 25 hp diesel $ 12,599.00 - MFWD, they might be incorrect. I hope that is not just for the tractor only! You can get a BX2200, loader, 60 mower, and 3 -PT hitch for around $13,200.

I just think JD is to late with this tractor and the price will not be along side the BX. BX still wins the market.

Don’t get my wrong, I love JD a lot. Hell I had a 455 and sold it. Might look for some deals on a new 455 when the new x-series comes out. I should not have sold my 455. It worked great.

I just think that for $12,599 for the X595 with mower is not bad; however, you can get the BX22000 with 60” mower and hitch for around $9,800. That is $2,799 less then JD. Granted it is 3 more Hp for JD, but you get a Cat 1 hitch with BX2200 for that difference ($2,799 less).

Granted the X495 is about the same price as the old 455; but, the old series 400’s (425, 445 and 455) are slowly dying. People are seeing that JD series 400’s are over priced (which I think they are by a lot) compared to BX1800 or BX2200.
