Hello!
I am looking to buy a smaller tractor, and have looked at several models. I think the L3200DT will be perfect. I stopped by my local dealer, where I have puchased all of my equipment from and asked for their best cash deal on a L3200DT with Ag tires and a FEL. Nothing fancy. They have one in the showroom that they just put together. At this point I will mention that the dealer was recently sold, and there is an entirely new staff. I think you may know where this is going... They quoted me at $17,000 for a cash deal. Their best offer. Take it or leave it. I was dumb-founded! BTW, this includes the $1,00 rebate! Who knows, maybe this is a good price, and the reason I need to check w/ the forum. My gut tells me otherwise. In the past I always thought a 12-15% discount off of MSRP is a very good deal. Have things changed? It has been a while since I bought my L4400. With this logic (12-15% off): MSRP = $19,035 according to the Kubota website (Build My Kubota). A 12-15% discount on this would be $2,285.20-$2,855.25. Plus there is a $1,000 rebae on the L Series. This would result in a total deal of between $15,750-$15,180. Again, cash deal, no financing.
So my question is: What is a fair price for a L3200DT w/ Ags and FEL??? Am I unrealistic with thinking I may be able to get 12-15% off of the MSP???
Thanks for any help!!
