Price checking a couple models

[ben21921]

I contacted the LS dealer. I was wondering what you guys thought of these prices as I have no idea what they go for. He quoted me a XG3135 35hp, hydro trans, FEL, 72" finish mower for $22,605 cash. And a XR3037 37 hp, hydro trans, FEL, 2 remotes and a 72"finish mower for $23,021 cash. Thanks for any advise.

RCO posts prices online RCO Tractor - America's #1 LS Tractor Dealer - Compact & Utility Tractors on sale now!. My dealer quoted my MT125 at about what RCO showed online.

Great thanks

For the extra $400, I'd go with the XR3037.

 

[ben21921]

Yeah for sure. Thanks

I know I've not answered your original question, but I'll say that I've got an R3039H purchased in 2013 that is similar to to the XR3037H in capabilities and I'm very satisfied in the tractor. If I was looking now, the XR3037H would be on my short list.

I've got a couple questions about buying a tractor and getting it delivered. I've been working with Smith enterprises and they're out of North Carolina and I live in Maryland. They beat the prices of everyone else I've checked by a substantial amount and been very good to deal with. I'm new to tractors so the question is if you buy and have a tractor delivered what happens if you have a warrantee issue? Can you take any LS Dealer? Also are there any other issues need to be concerned with buying a tractor and getting it delivered?

Yes, another dealer can perform warranty work on a tractor purchased from another dealer. How responsive they will be to you request is problematic. A dealer will repair and take care of their own customers before performing warranty work on a tractor not purchased from them. As far as long distance purchases I would make sure that the company would provide you with the correct operating procedures of the unit when delivered in addition to daily and routine maintenance. A pre delivery inspection is also critical.

Ok. Thanks for the info.

Finally got my tractor and so far knock on wood it's been great. LS XR 3037h also got a work saver grapple and a 72" pulsar finish mower. Other than having a fight with a nest of yellow jackets I stirred up doing some clearing "which I didn't win" I'm very pleased

That grapple looks like fun! I wonder how useful a mini grapple would be on mine.

As a pocket on a tee shirt. Mine stays on 90% of the time.

Or look for the "Thumb" made by Greens machine for a lower cost alternative.

Nice looking setup, congratulations!

 

[ben21921]

Thanks

 

[MESSMAKER]

I agree. Good looking unit.

Just a heads up. I had a dealer tell me they would not meet another dealers price and if I did not buy from them they would not work on the LS tractor period, of course this sounded like the dumbest thing ever.

I called corporate and emailed and got a response from the big wig this is what he said, copied directly from my email. All his contact info is at the bottom



Dear Rich,

First off, thank you for your interest in LS Tractor. I wanted to follow up on your questions below.

a. Authorized LS Dealer
We apologize for any inconvenience.
Actually some dealers are very aggressive on sales and compete with each others. This is an issue that other tractor or car dealers experience similarly.

b. Service & Parts
Problem may be getting your dealer to perform any warranty work for you since you didn’t purchase it from him. He may or may not be willing to do it (and we can’t force him). All warranty work must be done by an LS dealer.

Particularly, certain parts may not be supplied early, but most parts are supplied in due time so do not worry.
Basically, we have stock parts of all products, but there seems to be a temporary lack of stock of certain parts.

The much awaited 2017 DEALER- MANUFACTURER RELATIONS SURVEY results are in and for an unprecedented 3rd year(three-peat), LS has taken top honors in the TRACTOR MANUFACTURER classification. For the third consecutive year, LS Tractor achieved the highest satisfaction level in satisfaction surveys conducted by the Equipment Dealers Association. If we have a lot of problems with parts or service, we would never be able to receive this award for the third consecutive year.



c. XG3025
It is one of the best-selling tractor in our models. So some dealers may be out of stock as the inventory turnover is fast.

d. 0% for 84 months
We have a differentiated sales program from New Holland. Please contact the nearest dealer so that you can check the competitive price accordingly.


Thank you for contacting LS tractor, please let us know if you have anything further.
