Price check on L2501 HST

[kbrooks]

I'm getting ready to pull the trigger thanks to your guys help.

But I think my local dealer is trying to rip me off. I'm in Western North Carolina. These are for the 0% for 60 months

L2501 HST $16,200
+LA525 with quick attach. $4,893
+BB1260. $685

21,778 + tax. =. $23,302.46. -. Rebate of $1900

Grand Total OTD = $21,402.46

Which makes monthly 356.70 plus insurance

If you aren't interested in local dealer support (you can have warranty work performed at any dealer) get a quote from Barlows Equipment in Somerset KY. They can typically beat other offers, even delivered.

I got mine last year, had some good rebates
L2501 HST 14,508
La525 quick attach 4,465
Land pride snow trip blade 1,775
Ktac 2,315
Tax 1,504

4,637 down payment to meet the 20% down for the 0% apr for 84 months
$238 payment

There is definitely some room in your numbers, good luck

I paid 19,500 before tax. Same options for the tractor.

 

[kbrooks]

Yeah, I definitely feel like 21,778 before tax is too much. I called another dealer and they shaved 500 off the total. So ODT for them was $20,900.

Am I stupid to think that I can get this for $20,000 total?

I don't wanna be a d*** about it and I understand people need to make money, but I don't know what kind of margins we are dealing with

Pristow’s in Berlin PA, I dealt with Dan. I then added a LP Quick Hitch which
after the $300 rebate was only $150.
When they delivered it their new invoice was somewhere around $800 more. After I brought it to their attention he said that was the new price after the recent price increase, he said basically the loader and tractor increased that much but he honored my original quote.

Thanks for the info.

Unfortunately, this doesn't seem like it will be an easy process, no matter who I go with.

....Unfortunately, this doesn't seem like it will be an easy process, no matter who I go with.

I know, it seems like it's never just a simple transaction. I'm sure I paid too much, I almost always do, but Pristow's was good to deal with and the tractor was fresh, delivered with 1.2 hours, no faded plastic etc. The mechanics I noticed in the shop working on stuff were older, somewhat greasy, and wearing blue mechanics uniforms. The tractor was delivered shiney with the third function lines nicely routed and tied down, the loader level, etc.

I put maybe 2 hours on it breaking it in by driving around some of the UTV trails then with the rear blade trying to scratch some stone into the potholes on our road. So far I really like this tractor, it's comfortable, shifts easily between the ranges and neutral, and the loader is really smooth.

This is by far the best price Ive seen.

I want to say insurance is $30 a month? Thats just over 2k in 7 years. You really got that tractor and box blade for $18,500.

I'm down here in the Florida Pan handle and bought my L2501 5 weeks ago. Still just under 10 hours on the machine. I got the 2501HST, LA525 Loader and bucket, QH15 quick hitch, and a quick attach root rake front end attachment. R4 Tires, and ballast in rear tires. I paid $20,500 Flat. I was going to get the third function valve and a grapple but it pushed the payment over my $300/month self imposed limit. I went to the dealer at like 9am, did al lthe talking, looking, etc, bought it, they loaded it up right there in front of me (after fueling and greasing it up and ballasting the tires) and the guy followed me little over 20 miles back to my house and delivered it right then. By 1pm I was driving around my place.

I bought mine from Hendrix Tractor in Savannah GA just 30 mins form home in SC.

Thanks for the help guys.

Found a dealer that was willing to go $18,850 out the door with the 3rd function valve. Adding on 20ft trailer, will still be less than the original dealer for just the tractor.

Congratulations! What did you get other than an FEL, 66" bucket, and third function? Out the door includes sales tax?
