Well, I continue waiting for the new 2020 series but I came across a used 4110 yesterday with 60" MMM, and 410 loader for $12500. It has 192 hours and while I'm not certain, its likely ~4 years old. It seems to be in decent shape although I had my 1 year old with me when I stopped in the dealer Saturday so I didn't get to look too closely before she lost interest.
I flip flop like most between the 4110 and 2210 but have been leaning closer to the 4110 of late. If I bought, I would likely pay outright for used versus taking advantage of JD's 0% financing for 36 months on a new purchase. Assuming I could buy new at 85% list, and factoring in time value of the 0% financing it makes the difference between buying new and this tractor ~$3000 in todays dollars.
What's people's thoughts, good deal or just so-so? No warranty is left. I've never seen a used 4110 or 2210 in the past 8 months around here so I don't have much of a reference to go by. Complicating further is that it has fixed ROPS which I may have no choice but to replace with folding which I know will be pricey. Also I'm not overly sold on the 60" deck design which I suspect will get improved in the next series (maybe just wishful thinking). So not only am I balancing $3000 for old versus new, but likely versus a newly designed model as well. Ok, I suspect the price will creep up some to, but there's also the chance a new 2010/4010 would be upgraded sufficiently to swing me back down a step. Six months ago I would have been much more likely to go for it, now with the new models right around the corner...decisions, decisions...
Also, any rules of thumb on dealer markup on used equipment? I'm sure the dealer is making some money here so the poor guy who traded it in must have taken a beaten on that 4 year old tractor. Guess JD holding resale value only applies to the dealerships.
Also, they are saying my 2000 335 with 290 hours, 54" deck, snowblade, 4 suitcase weights is only worth about $3000. All are in good condition. Does this sound reasonable? What might I expect if I sold to private party directly?
Thanks for any thoughts...
