I am looking to get an L series with cab, loader, and backhoe. Have been considering a new 3560. Also would consider a nice used tractor.
Today I found a used 2010 L4740 cab tractor with loader. Little bigger than I was planning. But would be ok. Has 850 hours. No backhoe. Would have to add that. Tractor was previously owned by an individual (not used commercially). Looks to be in pretty nice shape. Did an inspection and test drive today. Did not find any issues.
Dealer is asking $27,900 before any negotiation.
So my questions:
1) Is the 4740 a good tractor?
2) What would be a good price? Maybe should spend a little more to get a new 3560?
3) Is there any issues with the tier 4 systems on the new tractors? I do like the 2010 since it does not have tier 4 complications. Should I be worried about this?
Thanks
