I am trading in my L2800 which is two years old, and less than 120 hours on the tractor. It has a front loader, 5' box blade and a 5' Rhino shredder. The tractor is well maintained, and the dealer has offered me $13,000 trade-in for a new L4240. I will be financing around $13000 for the 4240.
I don't know what your trade value is. Have you gone to tractor house.com? There is an '06 hyd. w/loader 15 hrs for $14500.However your L 4240 is an excellent tractor based on info. I've gathered. So much so that I'm negotiating a deal on a L4240 HST Cab w/ LA 854 loader.
