Loan rates?

Not to be a wise guy but....maybe you are not financially ready to purchase.

Start putting what you can afford, monthly, away in a savings account until you can purchase the tractor and attachments that you need.

Or, go Green (or Orange, etc.) and get the financing that you desire. Why are you stuck on Bobcat.??

(now you can blast me)

I just got the rates on the Massey Ferguson a few weeks ago. They also are offering a free loader or 0% for up to 72 months. For my price, it works out about the same price on a 60 month loan if I take the free loader, they will finance for 5.99%. I plan to pay it off in a couple months anyway so the free loader is my way to go. My brother in law bought a New Holland around the first of this year and go free financing on it and the loader. I dont know if that is still on or not. Like one member said, whats the deal with Bobcat. Look around, there are other great tractors available with great deals on financing now. I liked the MF with the QPS transmission and Cab best for the price.

Man I'm sorry Kobbe I get frustrated on forums sometimes because most people don't read my entire post and then they comment on one sentence.

So I'm getting a Bobcat CT235. IMO after a few months of searching (and starting with 8Ns ha, ha) BC has the best bang for the buck. Plus I like the sales guy...I walked into 3 JD dealerships, 1 NH and 2 different Kubota dealerships and no one said a word to me (I swear). When I did force someone to talk to me I was bugging them...I hate that.

Okay sorry again the program is a free loader OR the good financing OR a $2K rebate. The free loader is the way to go I am sure of it (for me).

And the comment about not being ready to buy? I don't get that my wife and I can afford it...we actually bought the new house with acreage w/o selling the old house (its on the market now). Getting the 8% loan from the local credit union was no problem they approved it on Wednesday I just thought I could do better.

The finale, I'm going to use a new line of credit (at 4%). I would have used that from the beginning but its on the new house and the county hasn't processed the transfer (supposed to happen early next week).

Thanks again for the help...I'm getting the CT235 today I believe (payment next week). Very excited!
