I went back and bought the 4100. He gave me the $2500 trade in on my Yanmar. And everyone else would only give me $1500, including him, on a new one. So I guess if that is the wholesale price of one, then he wouldn't lower the price, but in that way he did, so I guess I bought it for $7500, instead of $8500. He told me right off, he was selling it to a dealer for resale, that is why I figure that is the wholesale price of my Yanmar. So even if it does have 897.6 hours on it, I think it is in pretty good shape. They left it pretty dirty, no clean up. As I looked at it, I need to touch up the paint in a couple little spots on the frame, (black) and that is about it, just needs washed, tires real muddy. Everything I tried worked, so how can I go wrong on a 2001? At least its a Deere, and can always get parts and find someone to work on it, if its something I can't do. Around here, no one wanted to work on Yanmars. Of course on a 4100 they would be, but I won't tell them.
Well, I did it.

Dick,
Congrats on the path that led you to where it did. Hopefully (and I expect it will) the 4100 will be the most satisfactory tractor you -- and over many more years -- will have! /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

Congrats. I love my 4010, and the 4100 is the same but with about 25% faster hydraulics and a couple more hp AND an underseat button that works without modification in the up position.

Dick,
If I ever knew where you live I don't remember now, but there's a good JD dealer in Mendenhall, just south of town on Hwy 49. He's been there a long time and from what I can tell services his customers well.

Traitor.......
Just kidding I traded colors a few years ago. Great news on getting a tractor that may work better for you.
