Price Check Price for a 1455?

What is a common price for a 1455 with the 16x16 trans, MFWD, and dual SCV? Just curious as it seems like a heck of a machine.

Can't help much with the 1455 w/16x16 power shuttle as I haven't seen one around here. My dealer has had several 1455v w/12x12 manual shuttle since I bought mine. I've had good service from mine. Look in the "reviews" section for additional comments.

Just received a quote of $18,300 for the 1455V and $20,400 for a 1455 PS and $4,050 for the 1040 loader from a dealer in North Texas.

After reading your review would you buy another? It seems if I ever needed to trade the Deere in for a new tractor I would go this model. Not that I am going to trade in but I never did shop around besides what the JD dealer has I work for. I like the metal fenders and hood to this model it reminds me of the 990.

I've been satisfied with this tractor, but there are tradeoffs involved in everything I guess. Weight is a big factor, along with having enough tractor to do what I need to do. I shuttle equiipment between MS and LA (175 miles 1-way) a couple of times a year and I figure this tractor with FEL and Bush-Hog 286 cutter is about 6,000 lbs, which is about the max for me. If it wasn't necessary to haul I would probably go with a heavier utility tractor. I was very well satisfied with the NH TN65 but going to 4wd with FEL it was too heavy. If weight was no problem I would consider the TN series or look at the MF utility tractors. Those two brands are best represented by local dealerships in my opinion. If the other local dealers were up to par I would look further...
