Price Check Pricing a new New Holland TC40DA with loader.

[arnoldziffel]

A fine, local New Holland dealer has a new TC40DA tractor with a matching 72" loader. I'm paying cash, I have no trade. What would be an exceptional yet realistic price for this machine?

 

[AndyG]

Has the dealer made a price on the machine? Does it have any extras like supersteer? I bought my TC40D with supersteer 4 years ago and gave about $22,000.

I think you will pay $23k to $24k for that tractor at today's prices. It is an older model that has been on the dealer's lot awhile, so he may be willing to deal closer to what AndyG suggested. I think I'd offer $21,500 and see what he countered with. Always offer a little lower than you think his bottom price is and see what he comes up with. Your cash deal is a nice, quick, and clean deal that just may get you into that tractor at a very bargain price.

I don't consider a cash deal to be an advantage any more. Auto and equipment dealers often make more on financing than they do on the equipment.

I had them down to 22k for this particular unit.

The tractor I'm considering has a 16LA LOADER not a 17LA loader. Does that make a pricing difference? Does a 16LA loader have more or less capabilities than a 17LA loader? Also, this tractor does NOT have supersteer - - just a standard front axle. Thanks for your responses. This is a big purchase for me and obviously I'm a novice.

The 17LA loader is only for super steer tractors.

If anything, the 16LA is actually a stronger unit as the lift arms are not as long as on the 17LA (needed to clear the axle of the super steer).

Good luck!

If you have cash why not buy an almost new used one? I bought a TC40DA supersteer 17LA loader with 50 hrs and looked like new for $17,000

I'd like to find a nice used one but have not. At the risk of offending some, I did just find a 2005 John Deere 4410 with loader and 3 point finish mower for $19,000. Today's equivalent JD 3720 with the same equipment is $25,500. The New Holland has been quoted at $26,000 with loader and mower. Some of you suggest I may be able to negotiate this down some more. $24,000??? Thoughts?

 

[jinman]

The Deere 4410 sounds like a better deal to me if you would consider a used tractor. Check it over well and make your decision. A year from now both tractors will be used. Buying a good tractor used at a much lower price is a smart decision. Polish and shine are very expensive. Without them, you can save big bucks.

Did I get a good deal on this tractor whenI bought it in April 2007? Just curious. I love the tractor.

New TC45A (made in Dec 2006)
Ag tires, filled rear tires
Weights on front
New 7" brush hog brand rotary mower
Fiberglass canopy over rops.

Paid 20,000 even.

In my opinion, without a loader, you paid too much (+$1500 or more). If it has a loader, you did very well.

No loader. Oh well. I figured as much after I bought it. However the local dealer is nice to work with and he is only 2.5 miles away. The next NH dealer is over
50 miles away and I really wanted a NH. I could not bring myself to buying a Kubota and the John Deere's were really out of my price range.


What's the old saying? You did not pay too much you just bought it too soon.

I'm going to decide by Monday morning whether or not to buy the TC40DA. If I go for it, any additional things I should include in the purchase? I'm going to get the rear tires loaded. What else? The tractor comes with a loader and I'm going to select a rear finish mower or a brush hog. I also amd considering a 3pt. roto tiller for the garden. Dealer seems pretty firm at $26,000 for tractor, loader and finish mower combo. Should I push the price some more? This machine is an HST model, the response to the pedal is a little "jerky" is this normal? Some other models and brands seem to have a smoother pedal response. Thoughts?
