Price Check Latest price check--B7500

Anonymous Poster · May 7, 2003

I priced a new B7500HST with 302 FEL w/ 48" bucket, R4 industrial tires at several dealers , southern PA. & northern MD. Best price so far, for above package, $12,500. Should I go for it, or wait til the spring rush is over ? Maybe do better in July or Aug. ? What's your thoughts? Thanks !

That isn't a bad price for that package. I don't really know if prices truly come down after the season or not - I don't think they do in my area, but then again I haven't really been looking all that hard.

I'd say it depends on how much you really need the tractor. So my answer is a flaky, "it depends" /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif. For me, I use the tractor enough that I don't know what I'd do without, so if I were you I'd go ahead and get it.

Prices vary across the country, but I paid $13,200 for my B7500 with the 302 FEL in western Washington state. The dealer reinforced the bucket and put hooks on it, and it included free delivery and free pickup and delivery for all warranty work. The price you were quoted sounds like a good one to me.

The price sounds about as good as I did when I was looking in March.. got the same qoute of $12,500 for the B7500 with loader from two different dealers..
I tend to agree with the others.. it really depends on how bad you need or want a tractor at this point.
Good Luck..

You can't do better on the price if they are out of stock when you decide to buy. That sounds like a good price to me.

I just paid (the weeks ago), $13,400 with a 4 way valve, reinforced 302 FEL bucket, ATI removable tooth bar and rear halogen work light. The price included delivery of 120 miles.
If it helps, I recall the breakdown of the 3 hooks w/reinforcement, 4 way and tooth bar were about $650 and the light was $75. I also paid $4500 for the Woods 6500 hoe with 12" bucket with a hook (3 pt mount).

This was also not a unit in stock, it was ordered and delivery was about 2 weeks.

Paid about the same price in SE PA. Similar configuration plus the 60 inch MMM, came to about $15,000. This also included a rack and 600 lb ballast for the 3-PH. Tried to negotiate price--the dealer didnt wiggle much, but did manage the get a hook added to the FEL.

Just got a B7500HST, 302 FEL (48"), R4 filled tires, and hooks welded to the bucket from McCoy Equip in New Paris for $12,250 /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

You got a great price there. I live in Alaska and I couldn't touch a B7500 for that. Must be something about the east coast but prices out here are much higher. I got mine from Washington State and shipped it to Anchorage. I would jump on it for that price.

Your quote is comparable to one I had on a new B7500 in middle GA...7500 w/LA302 ldr, and a Bush Hog 42" rotary...the base package for tractor and Fel was $11500, R4's were another $150, toothbar was $290, and the 42" Hog was $710 with a stump jumper included - total around $12.6K.The cotton pickin 42" bushog is around $100 MORE than the 48"! Figure that one out.
I'd say you've got a good price - I checked 6 dealers in the area, and the one I took is not the cheapest, but he is 5 miles from the house - I can almost drive to the dealership.
Hope you enjoy the 7500 - mine is on order now, and I have a couple weeks of drooling time to go.
