Price Check b7500 pricing

[Anonymous Poster]

Got a price of $16,000 from a dealer in New Hampshire for the following package. I'm new to Kubota, is this a good price?

B7500 hsd
5 foot rear blade
60' belly deck
302 FEL
Kubota grass catching system

time to go shopping, this price seems high. start talking to as many dealers as you can and get as many quotes as possable and go from there.

Check out this link for a Kubota B-series price guidline
Seems like this is medium to high, depending on the cost/price of the catching system

Thanks, did some more shopping and already am $400 lower on the package from another dealer. I'll continue to shop

Call Steve Carver to get an internet quote. You can find him at http://www.carverequipment.com Don't forget to include shipping, though. No tax to out of state, so that might offset it if you're close enough and you don't qualify for a tax exempt purchase locally (farm). I got the best price from http://www.keysrecreational.com in western PA.

Here's the best I have done:
b7500 hsd
foldable rops
60' mmm
5' rear blade
302 fel
grass catching system

total price 15,600.

Any comment or thoughts how to get this price down? Looks to be about 20% discount to list

I believe that the foldable rops on the 7500 is a bit taller than the non-folding option. Perhaps a concern for mowing?

I need the rops for getting into my garage. I do have some trees to mow under, so it may be a hassle, or some tree limbs may have to get trimmed. What kubota model do you have?
