One step closer to a new Deere

RollTideRam · Mar 11, 2006

We sold the ole 650 today so I am that much closer to a new 2520. Now if I can just get a bite on my x475 riding mower, I'll be on a new green.
I decided to let our rusty 4' box blade go with the 650. Figured I could get a new 5'. I have looked at several brands on the net, but with only new green ones and KK close buy, I think I'll settle for a cheaper KK brand. Our old one was an offbrand, Gil or something like that. Besides bad paint, the KK should be allright... Right? JC

JC,
I noticed that you are in Hartselle (we could be neighbors). You might want to take a trip to Coker Tractor in Arab, I was there this weekend looking at a new 4110 and the 2520.
I bought a KK 5' rear blade and 4' rotary cutter from the TSC in Arab, both have worked well and seem to be well made.

Coker has been my dealer of choice for my last two lawn mowers. I stopped up there in January to look at gators. Saw the 4110 and that got the ball rolling on wanting a new tractor.
I could not find much info on the 4110 (Deere.com) and moved to the 2520. I already tried to trade my x475 anc 650, but was not getting a good price. Sold the 650 Saturday and trying to wait to sell the x475 before I go back
So far Coker has given me the best price on the 2520. I heard Snead Ag was cheaper, but they were $800 higher. JC

When I bought my 4100 (currently the 4110) last March, both Snead and Coker had similar used models on their lots (both gear transmissions and around 150 hours). Snead gave me a better price on the tractor, however Coker was cheaper on the attachments (60"MMM and 200CX loader).
So far the 4100 has been great, just a little light for some of the work I am dtrying to do.

I just bought a 5" Frontier BB from Agri-City in Athens about 3 weeks ago for $565.00 + 2.5 oe 3% tax. This BB is made by Woods. The salesman said he could price it this low because it was a 2005 model. They sent it over from their Florence store. Salesman is Curtis.

I guess I figured it would be too high, I never even priced a Frontier box at the dealer. I did order my 2520 on Tuesday. April 5 or sooner they said. JC
