Price Check Pricing on 4500

ShantyBranch · May 26, 2001

Can't wait to get tractor.
But was hoping to get opinion on dealer price. I started out wanting Kubota, but the JD dealer really wants to sell me over Kubota. Says he kicked in a rebate or two ?? Also is this JD tractor(the 4500) the comparable model to the Kubota 3710?

JD 4500 4wd $15000
PwrReverser 900 add - seems nice, but ?$?
460 loader w/ hood guard 6 ft bucket 3600
JD 613 cutter $988
United box 6ft $315
Thanks!

Shanty,
You're getting a decent price on that setup. He's not taking you to the cleaners or anything. DEFINITELY get the power reverser if you're not going hydro. $900 compared to your total package isn't much and if you are going to do any FEL work at all you will be glad you got it.
If he really wants your business offer a little less. JD also has the low interest financing right now too. Look at jdlawns.com. They have their prices posted and gives you a little bit of an idea of what another dealer is charging.

Richard, thanks for input !
I do hope to negotiate some more.
I got a call from the Kubota dealer and he reminded me that the Kubota has a 3 yr waranty vs. 2 yr on JD. Is this true?
The two a fairly close in price, but I am leaning green.
