Price Check Pricing a John Deere 1070

[gregfender]

I've got a '92 JD 1070 4wd with a 4-n-1 bucket that I am thinking of selling. It has a hair over 1200 hours on it, and a canopy with a couple of cracks from getting a little too close to some low hanging branches. Over all it is a great machine, but now that the house is complete, I find its a little bit too big.

I have looked at tractorhouse.com to find comparable machines but the pickings are slim. Any pricing advice? I was thinking in the neighborhood of $10-11K. I was also thinking of getting the local Kubota dealer to take a look at it as a possible trade, then add a bit to his offer and see if I can get any interest. Its a shame there is no "blue book" for tractors.

thanks for any advice!

Go to tractorhouse.com to see what is available and what the asking prices for things are.

"Blue Book" ??? I'll bet there is some kind of reference somewhere. I don't know where to look to find it.

Good luck

Never used it, as you have to have a subscription, but if you are interested...

I think 10-11k is pretty reasonably. Any attachments to go with it? I bought mine from a guy I know so I got a pretty good deal. I paid 4k with a woods rm90 finish mower, but it is 2wd, had twice as many hours, and no fel. When I bought it, I had looked around and it seemed that it should have been priced around 7k. The loader and 4x4 adds a lot to the value.
