Dealer gave me a ballpark number of $29,400 with front loader and R4s, and can finance 0% for 84 mo. with 20% down. Not sure if I could bargain to have one or two remotes included, or if not, what a fair price would be? Thanks in advance for any feedback and/or recommendations you may have.
Background: Looking for a lower weight, higher HP tractor that I can safely tow with my older truck that has either HST or power/hydraulic shuttle, 4WD and a remote or two. The MX5800 certainly meets that criteria, and with current rebates/financing/warranty offers it is unusually (in my experience) closer in price to some of the Korean manufacturers like LS and Kioti that I have shopped. Plus there are Kubota dealers everywhere in my area, whereas only 1-2 who are several hours away when it comes to LS and Kioti.
Alternatives: a local JD dealer wants $31,500 for a 4052M with FEL and BB, and Kioti dealer $23,900 for a DK5510 with hydraulic shuttle, FEL and 1 remote (both new, cash offers). Saving the LS for last, since I previously had a positive experience, final decision will be between the other brand and the LS... probably around $26,500 cash for a XR4155H with two hydraulic remotes standard but lower PTO HP. I haven't demo'd the Deere... just can't get past the plastic fenders, non telescoping cat 1 hitch, and lower HP for a higher price. I liked the Kioti a lot -- quietest I've tested so far and cheapest, but it also has a few lows vs. the Kubota, particularly the lack of a dealer network in my region
