L3540HST price check

sbeausol · Apr 8, 2015

2009 120 hours, LA514 loader QA bucket, 5' brush hog, 5' box blade, rear remote. Looks like its spent some time outside in Florida with some light fading. Just realized there is a typo in my subject - It's a 3240 NOT a 3540. Price is $17500. Let me know if you have any feedback, thanks!

As you probably know that tractor is a grand L, it has all the bells and whistles, 3 speed hst, cruse control , weighs in more then standard L's, 3 point and fel lifts more the the standard L's in it's class. It does have the reduced loader not the LA724 but the ssqa for the bucket attachment is a plus. For the hours and the Grand L along with attachments it's a steal!

Yes,lots of tractor for that money.I will have HST+(great)extendable end links(very good).The rear remote is an extra(about $700),QA another $700.Only downfall is the smaller loader;if you need a good tractor buy it.
I would ask if the 50 hour service had been done.If the oil filter is white(and not gray) the service was done.
I had a L3130 and only traded up to a L4240 for the cab,the L3130 is very capable.

The 50 hour service was done, but none since then

I don't believe another is due until 200 hours.I wouldn't wait long if you are really interested.

Ok, we made the deal (at least in principle). $17,250. Hopefully I can pick it up next week!

Sounds like you did pretty good.

After looking up the L3240HST on Tractorhouse, I would think you got a fine deal, faded or not. Only thing I'd worry about would be sun and tires... and even that might be a none-issue.

Not bad with the attachments. I bought a 2007 L3540/LA-724 last year with 210 hours for $17K - I thought that was very reasonable from my research. So far, it's been great.
