Price Check Price increase?

Did Cub raise the msrp prices?

I didn't notice anything different for models, but I think the prices are higher.

Yea, looks like most of the 2500's went up by $200. Not aware of any changes though.

Rocko, it's been a while since I've been around, but I'd like to get an update on your JBjr and the eBay sleeve hitch that you modified.

1) How is the JBJr holding up? Any excess wear at pivot points? Are the actuators still operating as well as they were when new?

2) Can you explain how you modified the sleeve hitch? If I recall correctly, it originally attached to the hitch plate on the tractor, which seemed weak to me. Looks like your's is attached to the tractor frame. Do you have plans for what you did?

Geez, a ~17% price increase over the last 2yrs on the 2544 model! CC really seems to want to hit that $4K mark. Keeping up with the Jones's I guess. Oh well, as long as they keep making a decent machine for the price.

Makes me wonder what my $5200 1864 would cost new today!

Yeah, isn't that funny? I think our 1970 John Deere 110 was was ~$3K new.

about the same the price of a new 3100 - Im looking at a quote from back in 91 or 93" for the same machine. Looking back that was a lot of money for the time - but the odd thing is they are priced in the same area today -
