This never happens to me!

To make a long story short, know a guy that bought a new 2012 JD 5055e with loader and HD bucket. He decided he didn't need it because he had only put 25 hours on it in over a year and his wife was complaining that he didn't need it. So he called one day and said "if you will come get that tractor today, you can have it, the bushog and a blade for $19,000". I have plenty of tractors now, but could not pass that one up even if I sell it in 6 months! I love his wife .

you can never have enough tractors.

Nice!

Not knowing much about the Deere prices I looked at Tractor House. There is a 2011 model 5055e on there with 27 hours they are asking $28,500 for with no blade or cutter!

I'm sure you'd have no trouble making your money back!

Good grab,and you have understanding bride which helps towards your tractor collection.

That is true! But, she has really given up on me and considers it to be an illness at this point.

Good find congrats

That's an incredible deal. Nice to be in the right place at the right time. She must have made him plenty miserable for him to unload all that equipment for so little money.

That is a great deal, you can't lose.

My buddy - a full time farmer of forty years had this to say when he came over yesterday. He knows the guy who sold me the tractor. "If I were Tom, I'd kept the Deere and got rid of the wife. I have seen both."

Great Buy. This post made me chuckle.

Great buy on the tractor. Your buddy sounds like he keeps things entertaining.

Well I have an update - I was offered $26,500 for the tractor today. I am thinking of selling it and buying a little larger tractor. I am not sure what to do because while I would like a little larger, I would have she'll out to shell out another 5-6k to get even a 5065e.

She'll have to shell out the extra 5-6k?


LOL.. good job

We know who wears the pants in that house , He's probably vacuuming and dusting as we speak

To me it wouldn't be worth it just to jump to the 5065. What hp requirements do you need out of a larger tractor?
