New 5075e

[Grow a tree]

New member.
Exciting day! I just pulled the trigger on a new 5075e with Cab and 520M FEL. I added the 3rd scv, iMatch, rear wheel weights, premium radio, Frontier 7' box blade, Frontier 7' brush hog. I opted for the R4 tires because this tractor will mostly be used for property maintenance as apposed to field work.
I traded in my 2007 3520. The dealer is setting up the tractor this week.

:welcome:
To the forum. You joined a great site with very knowledgeable people.

Congrats on the new tractor. We need pictures or it didn't happen. :laughing:

Thank you! I will post photos soon. Does this forum allow videos?

Welcome and congrats.

I don't think you can post videos directly, but if videos are downloaded to Youtube (or something like that) you can either:
- Post a link to the video in your post, or
- Insert the video in a post (by pasting the link when prompted). The video will be able to be watched without readers going to another site like the other above method

If you're on a computer, these "insert icons" are on the top right of the "reply box" that you type text into.

Awesome! Thanks for the info.

Explain this.... 11 years ago I purchased my OOS 3520 with FEL for $18,900.,, My local JD dealer just gave me $18,500 for that same tractor 11 years and 800 hrs later.

Inflation mostly. Pre Tier 4 equipment has held value well.

Congrats on the new tractor. Welcome to TBN.

To explain your momey question. What did a similar 75hp tractor cost 11 years ago? What does it cost today?

 

[Zebrafive]

My inflation calculator says $18,900 in 2007 = $ 23,051 in 2018 Very good return on your tractor.

If he had simply sold it. When he bought the new one it canceled out that inflation with it's inflated price.

That is a nice ride, congratulations. Any chance we could get a picture or two of inside the cab?

Nice! This Wicked 66 grapple sure would be great up front!
Under 700 pounds and rated for up to 100HP.

The 5075e easily handling a 2,500 lb boxed tree

Very nice tractor that will serve you well. I would have considered a Deere if I had a good local dealer. Keep us updated on your use and a review after you put some hours on it. That 2,500 lb tree is right in your tractors wheel house. Should be a perfect match for your uses.

 

[ovrszd]

I agree with Turby. Look forward to more updates and pics.

 

[Grow a tree]

Here are more pics. I've used the tractor for about 2 hours. I am really amazed by the cab. Very comfortable and all the controls are very well placed. The cab is big enough so that you do not feel "closed in" at all.
