Case 50b?

[Roadbuilder6]

hey guys. Tomorrow there is a guy coming to look at our JD 2320. So fingers crossed. Since I will be selling this, I am looking at a Case 50b. i looked at the skid steers and just think that a tractor is right for me. Does anybody know the price of a new one, hydrostatic, with a loader? Thanks for any advice. Btw this is the same tractor a New Holland Boomer 50, and a Ls R4047. Thanks, John Gibson

You can use tractorhouse.com as a general guide for what dealers are asking.

I have, but all of them said call. I got a quote but want to see how it matches up to other peoples

If it was an LS R4047H, you could expect $22-23k or so. The Farmall and NH versions tend to run around $30k, and have a weaker loader.

 

[TSO]

I would think you could get one for around $25k if you are a good negotiator.

22-25K should cover this tractor. The loader is not weak on the 40 & 50B tractors, the 30 & 35B are guilty of having a loader of less capacity than the LS version of the same tractor.

If you can wait for the new 50C to arrive at your dealer you will have a little longer wheelbase and a more roomy operator station. This will be a tier 4 final emission tractor so the price will reflect that additional cost for emissions equipment. Expect to pay 28-30K for this new model.

I'm pretty sure that NH and Case use the identical loader for the Boomer40/Farmall 40b & the Boomer50/Farmall50b. NH calls our the 250tl, Case calls it the L350 I believe. I think they publish the max lift at max height at pins to be right around 2000lbs. The LS loader is 2500lbs.

Please correct me if my info is wrong

The cheapest I've seen anybody quite was $27k, and that was with only one remote, no reader work light, and no trailer 7-pin....add them and you're getting into $28-29k range.

The loader is rated at 560lbs less than the LS loader, but does go higher, which would make up some of the difference in listed specs.

I am mildly brand loyal, but found a local ls dealer and like the price of those better? Please tell me if I am wrong but im guessing a Ls R4047H with loader, bucket, pallet forks, 3 point hitch, filled tires and a 5ft tiller would be around $25k? Thanks, John

Your biggest challenge will be finding any available remaining R4047's ... there aren't many left. But yes, I'd say that price sounds about right.

If you can find one, an R4047H with FEL should be around $22,500 (varies a bit with area).

Pallet forks are usually $750, loaded tires are several hundred, and the 5ft tiller can vary wildly, but I'd plan for at least $2K. That should put you around your $25K price.

hey guys. I talked to the LS dealer today. They couldn't get me a tier 3 tractor and the tier 4s were 5 grand more then the tier 3s. I can find any used ones so Im looking at a few different tractors. The two i am considering are a 2007 Case Dx45 with cab, fel etc only 510hrs. The other is a L3240, with 460hrs. The Case is a little more expensive. I have a few concerns with both and wanted your guys opinions. My only concern with the Case is the cab. I have an 8ft high barn door for the equipment and Im not sure if it will fit. I also do a lot of woods work and wanted to know how the cabs hold up outside. I really don't like the kubota's heel to pedal, and the control layout, but other then thats its nice. Here are a few pics of them

 

[TSO]

I'd go with the Case because of the cab, more HP, more lift, bigger tires, etc. That Case is basically the NH TC45, and the previous version of the current NH "Super Suite" CVT tractors. Those are the Shibaura builds, not the LS ones.

I used to think that a cab would be a liability around trees also, but you quickly learn to be careful. The more I use my cab, the more I realize that I'll probably never own another tractor without one!

I'm not sure about you guys, but the skeeters are really really bad this year. Yesterday I was tilling my roughly acre pumpkin patch, and the skeeters were swarming the cab. It was crazy, swarms were coming up from the ground. And it was hot & muggy. No biggie, I was in my air conditioned cab, feeling comfy, listening to tunes.

2008 Case IH DX45 Hydro Tractor

I don't recall where you live, but here's another DX 45 for sale in my area.

 

[Roadbuilder6]

Thats a sick tractor. And thanks for the advice, i am personally leaning towards the case. I live in new england so this is the nicest one around lol, most of the ones around here are pretty beat up.

 

[Dillier23]

That year of the Case IH tractors was a desirable few. This was when the ISM and Shibaura tractors came out as Case branded machines. Honestly if I could find one in that condition I would buy it over the new B's.

Hey guys. I am talking to the person about the Case. I found another tractor. If the Case doesn't go through then I will look at this. It is a Massey Fergueson 1635, loader, cab heat, 70hrs $25,000 etc. It is in very good shape. My two questions are in the ad it said it had a (hydroelectric transmission) I believe he meant hydrostatic but I'm not sure. Then my second question is if it is hydrostatic does it have a heel toe pedal or twin touch pedals? Thanks, John

That's a nice tractor, I really like my Massey. The HST is a 2 pedal design.

The only negatives I can see in that 1635 vs the DX45 is the HP, and the loader. The loader on that DX45 will probably lift about 500 more lbs

You're hired. People cannot believe that columns of flying mosquitos are a common site in Minnesota. Those columns are just the males waiting to mate. The females are pouring over the ground looking for a blood meal.
