FARMTRAC 550

yooperdave · Apr 2, 2004

Anybody here have a Farmtrac 550?

I drove by a Long Agribusiness sign and thought I would stop by. I really liked the dealer. It was only a husband & wife, but they really had their heart where it belonged.

I got a quote for a Farmtrac 550 with
Loader
Hoe with 12" & 28" buckets
70" Tiller
72" Brush Cutter
84" TNT rear blade
pallet forks

$38,800 delivered

I woul like to hear what current owners think. I like this brand better than a Branson or Mahindra.

Thanks

hey Yooper,

If you wait a little bit,and AGCO does not quash the deal you'll be seeing Valtra dealers selling LG tractors also. They are already doing it in Oceania.

Hey 'Beef, /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Is it worth the wait?

I have no Agco dealers in my area.

I would like to try out a Valtra though.

Thanks

Hey Yooper,

Sorry but I can not get my crystal beer bottle to come in with clear reception into the future........all I'm getting is lots of snow on the screen......but then again the igloo is dripping a bit today also!!

Is it worth waiting........I'd hate to wager on that one. anything could happen with the AGCO take-over.

Woodbeef-Is LG supplying CUT's to Valtra now? Or is this something new, and how would this efect Iseki. Two compact suppliers for AGCO sounds like something they would like.

hey Chuck,

This deal was in place prior to the actual buy-out. If we ever see them here,who can tell. they might get switched over to Iseki like the rest of AGCO.

WB- I meant, I have to be careful here, AGCO to have a second supplier for CUT's, lower cost, possible to get more market share. They (AGCO) have not been able to get the market share, their sales are going up but not as fast as others. I would love to have a debate, is it AGCO's falt, or Iseki's.
