WorkPro 31XL- Has anyone seen one?

loganmenk · Feb 8, 2018

Hello!

I have been looking into a new tractor for about 3 months now. I want something in the 30hp range.

I stumbled upon an ad from a dealer selling a 2018 WorkPro 31xl. I like the specs and the price seems unbeatable, however I can't seem to find a single mention of this tractor anywhere but the dealer's website.

They say they will have them Feb. 18th.

I'll add a link to the ad here:

218 Yanmar WorkPro 31XL Tractor 5

| Team Tractor & Equipment

So... Has anyone set eyes on one?? Or is it too good to be true?

It is not a workpro tractor, never heard that name before. It is a Yanmar 424 and the authorized dealers have the option to get 0% financing for up to 84 months so the sale price and payment could be about right. I would find the closest yanmar dealer to you on their website Compact Tractors, Sub-Compact Tractors & UTV's | Yanmar Tractor

Thanks! That makes sense. I thought it looked exactly like a 424. It is advertised as 28hp. Looks like they are just mistaken in the ad.

Funny thing is at the bottom they are selling a Mahindra Workpro too. Not sure why they need to make up names. Sounds a little fishy to me.

Yea it is like 24.7 hp I believe, the proper specs would be on the website. And the payment doesn't make sense because $16,950 divided by 84 months is $200 monthly payment. That probably doesn't include tax, fees, and money down so I would question those things. As for the tractor it is a very solid unit. Good price for the size and it has been well accepted by our customers. I work for a dealership that sells them and we never had warranty problems or complaints.

My 424 weighs about 1,600 pounds not 3,000 and the FEL lifts about 1,200 pounds not 2,000. I wonder if they cut and pasted the wrong description or if they are deliberately misleading people for sight unseen internet sales.

I had called the place because I was thinking about at a Yanmar. The guy Mark told me that Workpro just what they are calling the last few new SX3100 models which are not the 424 - I checked Yanmar site and is it is there - the ad had the wrong picture. SX Series Sub-Compact Tractors | Yanmar Tractor great price

Yeah, it looks like a Sx3100 to me.

Here's the full specs:

SX31 Compact Diesel Tractor | Yanmar Tractor

I think they are great buys for anyone who is still looking for a Tier III engine. The Sx3100 will idle at lower rpms then current models and it has a rear diff lock.
