B7800 HSD purchase

[Hank]

<font color=blue> When you take delivery can you post some pictures of your hydraulic valve & outlets and Top & Tilt? It’s always interesting to see how different dealers hook them up </font color=blue>

I sure will. It is even interesting to see that the install can be different within the same dealership. We were looking at a B2710 on the lot with the three rear remotes and the same Gannon BB, and it was a bit sloppy, to my eye; nothing really wrong with it, functionally, though. My salesman (the former parts guy) suggested adding a couple of parts to neaten it up, and we did.

Very nice machine and very well equipped.

<font color=blue>The prices for each item were all "adjusted"</font color=blue>.

Maybe the dealer makes a higher commission on certain parts? Just a theory, but like you said, the bottom line is all that means anything.

<font color=blue> if u are anywhere near TEMPE </font color=blue>

Frank, I am 70 miles northwest of Tempe. You are welcome anytime, just let me know at my email address. Bingham Equipment's main store/warehouse is in Mesa, which is quite close to Tempe. You could probably play with quite a variety of toyls there /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

It's really funny to see. My salesman made notes on the invoice in a "code" he says even his boss does not understand.

Here are some examples, right from the invoice; these "notes" are right next to the MSRP figures, and he was able to run a calcualtor directly from these "codes", which represent $$$ figures.

and so on. Whatever he was doing, I don't care. The bottom line is all I care about.

Hank:

Considering all the options and attachments, it sounds to me like you got a very good deal. Congratulations on a beautiful machine. You should get many years service out of it. /w3tcompact/icons/cool.gif I spent 8 years in Yuma (the town, not the prison /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif}, so I know what you mean about the sun. You should enjoy the canopy - when will you add A/C? /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

This machine is alot like the 7500 because it doesn't have all the extras. One thing I've noticed from the pictures is the "basic" seat. Same one on my 7500 and I replaced it with one from TSC. Check it out. Great machine though.

cchoate,
How much did the seat cost and was the install easy? My wife bless her heart tried to buy me the B-2410 seat for Xmas but the dealer said it would not work, I see no reason it would not, but I like the look of your set-up.

As my dealer explained to me was this was a 2910 with out all the extra comfort things.

Hank,

Don't know If I've properly congratulated you on your new addition to the family, so here it is:CONGRATULATIONS, how's she running?

EDIT HERE:

Just looked at the date, you've still got a week B4 she shows up.

The seat came from TSC and ran $152. A bit much to spend on a seat, but when my butt is comfortable I can stay on longer. I also added rear lights and front weights. Check them out.
