Buying advice needed mx4800 or mx5800

All-in-all looks like good numbers.

Alabama price, no tax (AG exempt)- final estimate today

If I am reading this right, this dealer maybe prices all the attachments at list price and applies the discount to the base tractor price

MX5800 HST $24,400
R4 tires loaded Rimguard, wide setting (will fit 91" wheel wells on trailer)
LA 1095 Loader w/ SSQA $5,185
RCR 1872 cutter $2,150
1572-01 grader $1525
canopy $450
QH 15 $495
PFl 3048 pallet forks $895

after cash discount and Land Pride 2+ attachment discounts

Cash $34,400

Passed on these upgrades:

Square back bucket $400 (5 week backlog)
Top N Tilt rear hydraulics $2,200
Grapple and front third function $3,200

They would not do any add on's at whole goods discount and no labor


Best price I found in Georgia for same setup was $36,500 Beshears

"All-in-all looks like good numbers." Thanks Ed, I am always worried about being taken when they see a female buyer- it happens with cars all the time. They did seem very surprised at a cash buyer

We are going to pick it up Wednesday and gingerly tow it to the main farm, its 15 miles, Then its back and for the 7 miles between the 2 properties

I've owned a lot of tractors over the years probably 1/2 a dozen kubota's in the mix.

I think you'll be happy with the new tractor keep us posted with your likes and dislikes. EDR

Cathy that’s a great deal. All things equal beats my deal by $3000 dollars , but things are a little more expensive in the Northeast. You will love this Mx5800 tractor good luck .
