Well, its on the trailer and coming tonight. I had a deal locked in at a local dealer 20 miles from my house a month ago but when I came in to sign he said they just heard from Bobcat that it would be at least 8 weeks. Just so happens, that same day another dealer about 60 miles away responded to my email barrage with a quote $800 less and had the tractor! He needed the bobtach loader, but said one was on order and would be there in 7-10 days. 10 days came and went and still no loader. Turns out everything is backordered. The pulled the loader off a tractor and another dealer and had everything ready in a month from the time I ordered. We are still waiting on the rear hydraulics but the tractor is coming tonight. Tri-State Bobcat in Hudson WI is where I got it from. They were up front and easy to deal with. Grand total for a CT225 with deluxe suspension seat, bobtach loader, mid PTO, rear hydraulics came to $11,000 even. Good thing I had my order signed before the rebate dropped. Jesse from Tri-State even called me to give me a heads up that the rebate was ending. Can't wait to move some dirt and mow with my Woods RD7200 mower!
