Finalizing the deal...B7500

[70boss]

B7500 HSD, R4 industrial tires, filled with CaCl, block heater, 3 front Kubota weights....$10,100. Implements to be purchased as needed, fom various sources... box blade, rotary cutter, landscape rake, and tilting rear blade. I did not add the loader at this time since I have a skidsteer available, but the LA302 will be on before the snow flies in November!! The ractor will be delivered tonight, and tomorrow will be Kubota day at our place. I will try to get some pics of the machine and it's accomplishments by the end of the week. The more I can get done, the more my wife will warm to the idea of more implements!!

That's a better deal than any I have been able to find in SW Ohio. Did you have an "in" with the dealer or are you just that good of a shopper. BTW, where did you get it?

I got the tractor from Mcarlanes in Sauk City Wisconsin. I did talk with a couple of dealers, and of course found what good prices were on the internet. Most dealers will quote high at the start, but you can usually work them down a bit. Most places don't have a problem discounting 15% off of list price. AND, 15 % off is a good deal. Can you get more discount? It seems some people have, but more than 15% seems to be the exception and not the rule. $10,000 was the quote for the tractor, and $100 to fill the tires. The model I am getting does not have the folding ROPS, which I do not need.

An "in" usually does help.... I did a lot of shopping around and this is the best deal I could find. Several dealers flat out told me I was lying when I told them my best price. Guess not. The tractor is going to be delivered early next week.
B7500 HSD (standard ROPS)

Wow. Awesome price. I've searched high and low (east coast primarily) and the best price I've found for the same set up without the blade is $13,900. I had dealers quote me prices as high as $15,500 that they refused to budge from.

Congrats and enjoy.
