I ran Kubota for the last 25 years or so. Worked my machines hard. Very few issues. One Kubota dealer recently closed and another lost its Kubota franchise. Closest dealer now is John Deere w next closest Kubota dealer another hour + away. Decided to purchase a new 75 HP John Deere.
Not to nosy, but just checking comps...
What does a new 75hp JD go for now? Include loader?
Haven’t checked on a Deere, lately (I’ve got a 5085E that is 6 years old, that was $48k, new. It’s still worth about what I paid for it (low hours).) I’m about fed up with the Deere dealer’s nickel and diming service department..
I priced a 70hp Kubota, with loader, last week, and was told approx $58k. I imagine a Deere is about the same, give or take $2-$3k.
An 85-90hp is well over $60k, now. About $15k more than I paid 6 years ago. Thanks, Biden inflation....
