TC-40D (last years model)
hydro, R4's, mid pto
16LA loader HD bucket w/hook
758C backhoe w/subframe & 18" bucket

$30,400

Anyone know if this is still a good price for this rig? I am trying to buy one in the Seattle area. Thanks.

P.S. - If anybody noticed, sorry for the quasi double post. I need to call my dealer with a yay/nay in the morning!

I think your estimate is about $2,000 too high. You also need to get the quick-attach loader and bucket if you can, but that won't add anymore than about $450 on a new tractor.

It looks like you've copied the specs from Propertymaint, except for the RFM. You need to subtract the cost of an RFM from that $30,400 price. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

The brand new TC40DA, same bucket, BH is $27,600 in New York State. I think you're over by at least $2400, maybe more since it's last years model.

Horstuff,
The above pricing in your posting was the best I got from a local dealer here in New Hampshire. The dealer has a good reputation - sometimes that is worth a premium - but you have to be comfortable with whom your buying from. Also, the prices people are getting from down south, out west and even New York appear to have been considerably ($2,000 +/-) less than the lowest price I got in my state. I pretty much researched this tractor purchase to death before I dropped the hammer. I may have paid a bit of a premium for a reputable local dealer but in the long run I think it is worth it and also, I believe in supporting local business.
Good luck in your future purchase.
Peter

Horstuff just a few short months ago I got the following:

TC-40D
arm rests
SuperSteer
R-4s
17LA FEL
72 quick attach HD bucket w/welded hooks
48" quick attach pallet forks
757C backhoe w/12" bucket
fiberglass canopy
grill guard
600 pounds of cast wheel weights
3-point weight bracket w/350 pounds of cast weights
$28.800

I think that you can do a bit better in my opinion. This pricing was from a local dealer here in Ohio.
