Trade-in and upgrade

[paulfun9]

You have to have cash on hand to take a trade. If a dealer who is on floor plan sells a tractor then he must pay for that tractor. To take a trade he would need to have the $15,000.00 in cash to hold the trade till it sells. I like trades but when the tractor is near new with less than 100 hours it makes it hard to sell because you need a cash buyer because there is no special financing for that tractor compared to the new one that i have in stock. I sometimes recommend the customer to sell the tractor on his own then come in for a clean no trade deal. This way he gets full selling price for the his tractor and i can discount the new tractor because i don't have money in a trade.

Ever think about offering to do a consignment sale for a customer who is looking to upgrade. This way you help them get a sale make a little on it and sell a new machine?

That's exactly how I bought my DK. The original owner fell on hard times and asked his original dealer to try to sell his tractor. I had the dealer make a couple minor repairs (at no cost to me) and bought it for the same money as a much smaller new tractor. One great benefit, to me, was that the dealer had performed all the scheduled maintenance so I knew what had been done and when.

Yes, I ordered a bunch of these when the writing was on the wall about the tier 4 swap over. I sold all but 1. So I do have a DK40SEH ROPS R4 with loader in stock, brand new.
