Price Check m7040 price and advice

[gwdixon]

As stated before, the SU model is bare-bones and has far fewer features than a regular 7040 model. Same engine if HP is all you are interested in.

When considering a larger tractor, I looked at the SU and the "full" 7040 and decided on the latter. In my opinion, the extra features were worth far more than the modest difference in price.

The tire sealant is likely "Slime" or the equivalent. You cannot have filled tires if Slime is used. However, foam filled tires don't go flat and are very heavy.

What do you mean by full 7040?
What sealant? I'm guessing no liquid weight?

When you bought your MX5100, it is an economy tractor, not a deluxe tractor like the M5140. It does not have all the bells and whistles that the std M models have. The M7040 SU is the same situation, it is a different tractor than the M7040. 3pt hitch is different, seat, the actual dimensions are even different, close but different showing it is a different machine.

when i bought my 7040SU the upgraded 7040 like your talking about was i think $35,500.the upgrades was a rubber mat on the floor air seat with arm rests and a few other added things.but the dealer didnt want to come off the price.plus it didnt matter to me wich tractor i got.they really wanted me to buy a cab tractor and i told them no right off.

just like mr dixon says, su is bare!! but suitable for much cheaper than the full model if that's your route.... again, imho 33k is a huge chunk of change for that model if it is 4x su...i paid exactly that amt for my 8540 hyd 12 speed 2x remote 6 yrs ago....surely inflation/tier 4 couldn't have up that much...or maybe it has, but go for bigger dreams @ that price

Thank for all the info guys. I'm hoping to get to the dealer Monday to look around, I want it to be exactly what I want since I don't plan to get rid of it for a long time.

Went by John Deere today to price a 6065e. But I just don't like how the operators platform isn't flat.

Not my thread, but thanks for the info. I'm too looking at an m7040 HD tho. I either want to buy a 7040HD used or a 5140HD new. They are close to the same price (in monthly payments when 0% new is considered vs 5% used...) when you get about 700-1000 hours on one.
My question is: Is a 2010-2012 7040HD with 700+ hours for $26,500 too much?
Is Tractor House the best place to look to buy? Seems like everyone i call and ask for bottom dollar, they are like we're loosing money (BS!).

what are the specs on that 7040HD cab loader 4x4 what.but yes $26,500 is a real good price for that tractor.

After looking around that seem like a pretty fair deal on that tractor. Comparable to others but getting roof,R4sand slightly less hours.
