It sounds a bit high but I ended up with a 7610 and now can not remember the exact price of the 7510 when I priced it. I would suggest you look hard at a Hydrostatic model if you plan on doing a lot of FEL work. I ended up getting the Hydro model and it was WELL worth the money. It works GREAT and makes loader work effortless and extremly quick. If you can swing the cash the 7610 (about $850 more in my case) gives you more HP, and the option of a larger loader (I think it was another 150 or 200lbs roughly) I am VERY glad I went with the 7610 and larger loader because I have been using a LOT more than I ever thought I would and for a TON more things than I would have guessed. People said I would and they were 100% correct. I am glad I listened to the people on this site and bought a little bigger than I felt I needed! It was a very good move. I ended up at about 14600 for a 7610 HSD, folding ROPS, with the larger FEL and the 60" HD wheeled Mid Mount Mower (think that mower was about 2K alone) if that helps with the pricing any. Good luck
