Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Cabela's is closing out their tractors

If you're interested, Cabela's is closing out their line of tractors and sell the tractors, made by TYM, and components at around a 20% discount.

We're looking at buying two of the LM75C style. Anybody here have any experience with this units?

hope cabelas is closing out totally

That price of $35k for a 75hp tractor with a cab is a very good price. Very good.

Edit to add: I see that is without the loader priced in. It's about normal for what you can get without the loader for that price. I'd sure want a bucket on front...

Changes the whole dynamic of the tractor, and what can be done with it.

The guy at Cabela's quoted me $37K with the bucket and my choice of either a scraper or a tiller.

Why?

Rumor is Bass pro shops made a bid on buying out Cabelas

True, but I bet that even if BPS buys Cabela's, they will keep the Cabela's brand and run is as an independent operating company (IOC).

No rumor just read the financial section of your local paper start bid went in Tuesday..

Bass Pro Shops has made an offer to buy Cabela's Inc. (CAB), Reuters reported Tuesday on its website, citing people familiar with the matter.

Cabela's in December said the hunting and fishing goods retailer was exploring strategic options, including a possible sale.

Bass Pro Shops has hired the private equity arm of Goldman Sachs Group Inc. (GS) to assist in the matter, the people told Reuters.

In late-morning trading, Cabela's shares were up about 5.46% at $52.06.

No glory holes to work at Cabelas, eh...

I've often hoped the same for you.

Hmmm...wish I had one closer. In the market for a compact with a bucket.

Are the tractors Cabela's sells as good, and backed with service like their Chinese, ATV's?

Maybe if they get bought out they will have something on the shelves nothing but a high priced preppy clothing store anymore Stopped at Sydney twice nothing powder bullets etc. talked to some locals they don't go there anymore even

I shop at Cabelas frequently as there are three of their stores within an hour of me, two less than 40 minutes.
That's part of their problem, I believe, too much brick and mortar and overhead.
I find their brand products to be good quality. Their warranty is great. Their prices, not so much unless you use a coupon or have credit card points.
This industry consolidation means less competition, and higher prices, regardless of whose name is on the front door.
It will be advertised by Bass Pro as a way to "better serve our customers." Which is exactly what it will be. If you use their definition of serve.

The bank, alone, would be about 6 billion, a far stretch for BPS even with the backing of GS.


And you do know that Cabela's does price match...

No Cabelas store near me I order what I need online or out of their catalog as long as I can remember. I live 10 minutes from a bass pro and I hate to go in there. I guess the brick and morter stores have to have stock things most shoppers buy. Hats and t shirts. I bet if three thousand people walk in there 1 might be looking for powder. I gave up on the bps store having what I need. So I save the aggrevation and order from my online sources. I hope they all stay open as I wish no one ill will especially the people who work there. The stores are what they are. I have enjoyed a great many quality peices of cabelas brand gear and clothing over the years and "generally " always felt I got the quality I expected. Not so with BPS. Their stuff was mostly crap. So I wish Cabelas the best so long as they do their part. If not I will find an online store that will.

What a miserable SOB.....

Is there anything you don't hate....(other than corn-holing your cousin)....

That's funny!

Don't know don't have any cousins, or any family for that matter!! ya f#$%^n uppity P$%^k
