I was at my dealer yesterday and we were discussing how prices have gotten completely out of hand. I don't know how the typical homeowner is doing it. I work in a gold mine and I won't pay the prices they are asking for new stuff right now. I'll just keep what I have. Sad part is my dealer doesn't think we will ever see the prices lower to what they were pre-covid, even if the economy tanks.
Just a few prices I saw (Canada, in Canadian dollars.)
A Grand L3560 with loader and a snow blower (no extra remotes or anything else) $86,000
Just sold a BX with only a front snow blower and a Tek Tita cab...$48,000
The new John Deere Gator luxury edition with the leather seats $56,000
Glad I already have everything I need.
