2017 LS XR4145HC 1967 oliver 550 gas
I have an opportunity to get a new 2016 model for 27k out the door

seems like a real good price dealer is wanting to move it cause he has had it about a year ?


thought and comments welcome

IMO that's a great price for a 4145HC. I paid 24k for my smaller 3037HC 3 years ago.

That's a good price. I don't think there are many differences between 2016 and 2017.

Agree with everyone else. We paid $26K for our XR3135HC last September, so that sounds like a very good deal.

It's taken everything I've thrown at it and then some. That said, it's my first modern tractor (last one we had was an ancient Allis Chalmers, then I did some city living for a while). Compared to that, well, there's no comparison :)

The LS has been great. Only problem I've had was snapping a door hinge because I was stupid - too close to a tree, didn't close the door before I started backing up. $50 mistake right there. Aside from that, it's moved trees that I didn't think it would budge, dug through tough Missouri clay, and just generally has been put through my kind of inexperience rather well.

I've only got about 55 hours on it right now. Went through my first regen at ~35 hours, and it just keeps chugging along. The backhoe is more capable than I need, the loader fills easily, and it does more than I need.

We were looking at a 3037, but the dealer said that once you get the machine all optioned up with a cab and such, it's only a couple thousand more to get into a 41xx. He had the 4145 on the lot, and I only dropped another 2k or 2500 (don't recall exactly) on the 4145. I figure you can never have too much tractor.
