Price Check New 5115M

[barneykeithray]

I just bought a 2012 5115M with a 260H loader with hay fork and bucket. I did not shop around a whole lot. I have 70k even for it all. The loader dose not have third function and NSL. The tractor is loaded out and has tons of power. I am super satisfied with the tractor, but was curious to know if I could have got it cheaper if I had of been more patient. Thanks for your feed back.

You know.... if you asked 50 different buyers how much they paid -- you'd find a bunch that paid more and a bunch that paid less. It all comes out in the wash! Enjoy your very well made tractor with a ton of power!

How about a couple of pics? Always apprecieate lookin' at a nice green tractor in a nice warm place! Especially, in Feb. with 3 inches of new snow and it's still snowing @ 9F! :laughing:

I wouldn't spend any time second-guessing myself now if I were you. You got yourself a great tractor! Enjoy it while you can. The government has us circling the drain anyway. Your money is worth more in a fine tractor than it would be in the bank.

I agree with Fish, pictures would be nice.

it all depends on what dealer you buy from. right now, my dealer is offering 0% for 60 on ALL 5000 (5e, 5d, 5m) series tractors and ALL Gators (excluding pro-gators and turf-gators). Looking on Deere's website, I don't see this offering but my dealer is offering it currently. they usually have special offers that Deere isn't showing on their website so I don't know if it's through the dealer or Deere.

Looks good. That's basically the same as mine, except yours is newer, nicer and more powerful. We do have the same loader anyway.

You're not that far from me. I'm just this side of the Chattahoochee in Ga..

They had one of those at the dealer the other day. Man it was sweet. buddy seat, moon roof and Michelin Radials. Unfortunately out of my price range.
Nice Ride

Nice tractor, it looks nice with the tires fully extended out. Got a 5085M like that, with no loader and high crop tires. Really nice tractor.

 

[barneykeithray]

It has Michelin Agribib Rear 420/85 R34 Front 13.6 R24. They are stock just turned out the rims.

Thanks we are proud of it. My Dad and I went in together and bought it. He always has wanted a cab tractor and he is not getting any younger. We have about 65 head of Moma cows and cut/bail about 200 acres of hay. Just a hobbie really never any profit at the end of the year. Helps on taxes just a bit. My dad is a workaholic and he loves them cows about as much as he dose my Moma. Lol

Just a hobbie really never any profit at the end of the year.

Congrats on your new tractor!! I find it hard to believe that you aren't making any profit on cattle with the prices as high as they are. I converted all my tillable ground to hay and pasture and went to all cattle/hay. I've made more PROFIT off those old cows than I ever made from corn or beans. Bear in mind that I have a lot of river bottom ground and I get whatever is left after the deer, turkey, crows, raccoon, beaver and squirrel have taken their portion.

 

[barneykeithray]

I'm sure there may be a small profit but we always seem to find a way to spend it on the farm. Weather it be on fertilizer or renting new land. And of corse we are always building new fence and working on or buying new equipment. We really enjoy raising cattle and I'm sure money could be made with 100 more head and 500 more acres. It would also help if we paid closer attention to the money we have going out as well as coming in. But all in all it is really just a break even hobbie that we love to do. I've been at it now for all 34 years of my life and I plan on my son carrying on the tradition.

By the way, are you satisfied with your 5105m?

 

[barneykeithray]

Have you had good service out of your 5085m?

 

[pclausen]

Sweet tractor! I got a 2012 5085M with the same tires, turned out just like yours. Got the H260 loader as well. Are your rears filled?

 

[barneykeithray]

Yes they are. I thought about filling the front tires to get a little more traction on the front when filling the bucket. Do you have triple remotes? I only have the dual remotes. I like the adjustments on the triple remotes.
