Price Check JD 5325 price check.

[DirtyDusty]

I just got a quote of $33,500 for a 5325 with 542 FEL NSL, power reverser, economy PTO, straddle mount, and Ag tires. He said they didn't have any 5425's and probably wouldn't get any more since none where being made anymore. Said that they would have a new designation when they sent the new ones. Anybody know of a dealer in the south that has new 5425's Every used one I see costs as much as a new one.

I saw some on my dealer's lot in Ennis, Texas.

The 5425 is physically larger than the 5325.

I assume that is 2wd for that price.

That was for a MFWD. The 5325 and 5425 are the same frame and chassis. The engine is diff. and the length is longer on the 5425 because the bracket that holds the weights on the front sticks out further. At least that is what they told me. the specs show the height being higher on the 5425 because the stock tires are different.

That's right at the price I was quoted for the same machine. I forgot to ask if it had economy PTO. This one has 2 rear remotes and I am paying a handsome price to get a third installed.

Price I received was for cash price.

You are right. All the 5X25 I looked at used were no bargain. Most of the ones I found were up Nawth. Saw a couple in Georgia and couple in Florida. Wasn't about to try those deals long distance deals so don't have a clue how firm those prices are.

Don't know where you are in the South. Its a big space.

Well, that seems like a good price. I am paying that much for a 4520 cab. My wife prefers the e-hydro trans.

Look on page 13 of the 5025 series brochure. It shows the dimensions of the different models and the 5325 appears to be smaller.

What I pulled off the specs on the JD site:

wheelbase front axle clearance ship weight tires

5325 85.7 16.9 6030 9.5/24 14.9/28
5425 85.7 17.7 6470 11.2/24 16.9/30


Have yet to see the two models sitting side by side. The 5425 I looked at had a cab. the
5325 no cab--250 miles and several weeks apart. My mind tells me the 5425 was much bigger but the cab fools you.

You can tell the difference when they are sitting next to each other. The 5325 is a very nice machine. If it is not much more money for a 5424 you might want to consider it.

The clearance and height difference is in the height of the tires. The wheel base is the same. Side by side they look smaller due to the tire size being smaller on the 5325. If you go to firestone website and look at the different tire size you will notice the height diff. between the sizes.

**** - it sure makes a difference.

BTW Mr. Divinia I noticed you had a 5525 on your sig. line and I was wondering what kind of fuel economy you get out of it mowing? I looked at the spec. and it was saying 5.1 GPH and I was wondering if that was pretty accurate for normal use or is that when it is wide open.

Thanks,

Dusty
