You guys running the orange and red tractors, have they 'appreciated' in value like the green machines?
I was just price checking on tracterhouse and the madness continues.
About 5 years ago I paid $55k for a very good condition JD 7610, similar machines(hours, loaders, etc..) are now listed at $80-90k.
Are the orange tractors going nuts as well? Both my red tractors are worth at least what I've paid for them, or more. Better than the other direction...  My track loader is worth $20-25k MORE than I paid for it. Maybe I need to adjust my insurance numbers? I sure couldn't replace them for what I have them all insured for.

Hate to jinx it but 122 days in a row for these two yuppie tractors and nary a problem. They live outside and if it's -20F or colder I do have to jump the little German POS.... This morning. ![[Linked Image from hosting.photobucket.com]](https://hosting.photobucket.com/images/e78/montanasam/20230302_075954.jpg) Both my red tractors are worth at least what I've paid for them, or more. Better than the other direction... My track loader is worth $20-25k MORE than I paid for it. Maybe I need to adjust my insurance numbers? I sure couldn't replace them for what I have them all insured for. Barry, I was thinking the EXACT same thing about insurance after I price shopped on tractorhouse this afternoon! I'd hate to be buying equipment right now...

Not sure about where tractors are at but I just bought a brand new svl75 track loader. Kubota has 0.0% for 36 months. I hate financing but I won't turn away free financing. I'll let the $73,000 earn me some money while I pay the bill over 3 years.

Are the orange tractors going nuts as well? No the orange, red and blue tractors aren't keeping up with inflation.
Life is good live it while you can.

I bought 2017 Case IH 140a loader tractor with 750hours for 62k in 2021Today it would cost about 90-95k. I don't know about tractors. But new Kubota ssv75 skid steer cost 39k in 2020.( We bought a 2018 with 60 hours for 32k). I saw new one for 65k

Barry, I was thinking the EXACT same thing about insurance after I price shopped on tractorhouse this afternoon! I'd hate to be buying equipment right now... I just bought a JD5420. If I didn't have to have 1 for lung problems, I would have kept plugging along with the old tractor. Mine was plain Jane and 31k. If you want hydrostatic, add 15k, if you want 4x4, add another 10k. Cheapest used JD on a dealership within an hour was 48k... under 100hp anyways.

My experience is with a little big green. 1025R with endloader and backhoe. Everything points to a great machine so far. My really good friend has a similar Kubota with the same results. I think both are great machines but I went green. It’s unbelievable what they are asking for machines now. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/CMtT8vpH/B2299910-C158-4-FF8-8486-51840-D439149.jpg) If you haven’t yet done it load your grease gun with quality high temp grease and keep the U-Joint on the hydraulic drive shaft well greased. It’s right behind the engine coming off of the crank shaft. If you ever have to change it you have to remove most all of the top and dash off. I brought mine stripped to the JD dealer and it was $400 to remove the old joint requiring an air chisel and then install the new U-Joint. Then I had to put everything back together which saved me another $800-900.
