JD X585 4WD

[avex]

I was wondering what my JD X585 is worth. It is 4WD and has a 62" deck. 140 hours on it. I do not need the tractor anymore, it is a great tractor though. I do really like it. It is just not meeting my needs anymore. I have replaced 1 spindle on the deck and all 3 blades as well. I figured you guys might be able to tell me what it is worth if it is not too much trouble. I don't want to ruffle any feathers.

Thanks,

John

My guess would be in the $7-9k range

My local dealer was selling a 595 with 1000 hours for $7995. I thought he was insane. Search machinefinder.com and you'll get a real world appraisal.

WOW, I really didn't expect that. I was figuring the 4 to 5 thousand range. I am sure going to investigate this more. Thanks for the input folks!

It is green, and they are built so they hold their value. Just one of those things.

Just grin and bear it.

The prices on the new ones are going up super fast, so that makes your older one worth more right there. Its a great machine too btw!

Well, I sure would like to get top dollar for it. It is an amazing machine. It just does not meet my needs anymore. I am really impressed with it for sure. Having a 4WD lawn mower, (garden tractor), is really cool though. I have not seen any on craigslist. Not ones like mine anyway. I may try to put it up on there and see what happens. It is the wrong time of year to be selling one though. I will see what happens.

Thanks again folks, you are truly appreciated.

good luck selling yours, I am buying a 585 with 62 that
we took in on trade, and trying to sell my 445, but I am
suprirsed at how little activity I am getting from
Craig's list. I think I'm going to have to get it outside for sale at
a good location before too much longer and get it some exposure
that way.

Too bad you are not in snow country, as the 4wd will shine there more than in the south. And this is a good time of year to get one on the market.

But like the 445, the 585 is a gas guzzler. Handy to have the fuel injection engine, but noticeably thirsty of fuel.

What are you asking for your 445, if I may? And which deck size?
