Awesome video. TTWT is what we enjoy ... you do things ... discuss things ... go to places and it's filled with meaningful content. So keep doing what your being lead to do.
A friend has got information on a “free tractor” in up state New York. Story is that a deceased farmer requested that the machine be given away to a deserving cause. You only need to pay for shipping. He got pictures via email of a Kubota 3 series with a loader. Shipping cost would be around $2,000. The lead came from a local John Deere dealership. He was encouraged to make up his mind quickly and pre pay for shipping. He didn’t fall for the scam.
There is no such think as a Kubota 3 Series LOL John Deere yes, Kubota No....🤣
@@SNeal5966 I don’t know model numbers, but the pictures was of a larger tractor with a cab.
Real easy to see if it's a scam. Just tell them you have the ability to transport it and watch them come up with an excuse.
Did he also have a warrant for his arrest that could be paid off in applebees gift cards?😂
@@CampzzyzxI'd like to talk to you about your tractor's extended warranty.
I do appreciate these videos that aren't project based. Better informed consumers benefits all of us in the long run.
I particularly like the accessorizing :)
A lot of people have financed tractors in the past three years. We're going to see a lot of fire sales as people can't afford them any longer, the way the economy is currently going.
Good points to check with the dealer beforehand.
I like this type of video especially from a trustworthy source as yerself. This saves lots of legwork of constantly shopping around and checking pricing trends. It's like a full service tractor channel on what equipment to buy or avoid along with savings codes. Etc. The list could go on and on. Variety is the spice of life.
The used market is starting to come back down to earth after the astronomical price increases that occurred during and after the pandemic. While the used market is coming back to earth, the new tractor market is still on a steady rise. What once was a $20k tractor is now costing $30-35k.
I’ll agree things have gone up, but they have not gone up that much
Nice work Tim. As a tractor owner, I enjoy this info. It’s good to know the market climate with things that I have an interest in. After all, if I’m gasping at the price of a new tractor, I can also think…”Look how much mine is worth!” It keeps the dream alive😂. Blessings.
Great content. Thanks. I too have notice a market shift but many on FB are still want to much for their tractor as they paid too much. Thanks again…
I got quoted $24,796 for a new 1025R with the 60” belly mower and the front loader from a local dealer. I’ve been on the fence if I should buy new or go used. Thanks for all the useful information.
22k for TLB in 2019. How much the prices have gone up!
Tim, I do find videos like this informative as many viewers do. I had started out with a JD 2210 bought new, but then decided to upgrade to a 4415, and to say they are reliable tractors. I have used tractor zoom to look up not only compact tractors, but a farm tractor as well. Great content for someone, who is looking for a tractor especially a John Deere.
Great episode!
I recently bought a used 2025R (2021) and avoided the lien/repo issue by dealing directly with JD Financial for the payoff. All I needed was for the seller to inform JDF that I would be contacting them.
I found this video to be very informative, Tim, and would find similar types of videos very helpful as well. We can all benefit from your experience, which most of your viewers probably lack.
Where oh where is my 3420? I've enjoyed seeing you fix it up. All the joy without any fuss on my part. This relationship is great. Christy does a great job editing your eight hours of video into 20 minutes of pure gold. Great info. My 2025R with 200hrs is worth its weight. Only my seat and arm rests show signs of kept outside all the time.
great info...makes me glad id bought mine back in 2020 after doing research for a couple of years, there is no way id buy a new one now, even the economy tractor prices are high and close to what id paid for mine with the loan...going used right now is the way to go...im also surprised to see the used ones not go up in price for the cost of times, think that just hurts the seller....
PLEASE make another in-depth video on used. I am not the only one in the market for for a green machine. Thanks Tim!
Very interesting how the market changes with supply / demand and the economy in general.
It's still important that a person research local dealers even when buying a tractor privately because the need for repairs and parts are still a reality.
Good stuff Mr. Tim!
one thing I would check for sure, put the tractor on a level flat surface make sure the loader and 3 point make contact with the ground evenly, so you know it hasn't been twisted in one way or another, same for the axel spacing front to back, side to side and corner to corner basic alignment cause it is hard to know how forceful one may have used it or over loaded it, it is also much better if they have a service record for said machine, which honestly any owner should keep anyways
Good information Tim! 😁👍
*Keep on tractoring!*
Great video, and sound advice. I was all set to buy new, package from either Deere or Mahindra. Am fortunate that am very close to three good dealers of Red/Green/ Orange. But I ended up buying from a private party, a 2019 Mahindra with 120 hours, loader, belly mower, titan forks, rotary cutter, post hole digger, tiller and seeder for 16K, all same age. The caveat was an electrical issue, that the owner got frustrated with his dealer on. Long story short the local dealer verified serial number, checked ownership through the dealer he had bought from, always check to your point Sir. Owner had Stored inside but found out through the dealer when this was new sat on the lot outside for an extended time… moisture had gotten in the loom. To your point, first time new to tractors should walk away labor at the dealer is ave 120/hr, but am fortunate with mechanical skills was able to diagnose and find the issue, corroded connections…a little rewire, GTG, great running little tractor. Little long story, but these types of videos are educational/entertaining and of value to folks like me, imo.
Excellent video Tim. I'm surprised at how much a 1025 new is going for now. And the prices that you showed for really low hour 1025s is a great deal for someone that wants that model. Keep up the good work.
Excellent useful information as usual.
I would be interested in hearing more about " what to look for in a used 1 series.
I'm looking at to purchase a Kubota 2200 $5,500. I'm going to pick it up tomorrow. 800 hours on it. Drove it for about 10 minutes, and everything seemed normal for the condition it was in. The only issue that I noticed the pedal seemed to stick a little bit. But other then that seemed pretty solid. No leaks or anything like that. Looks pretty clean not beat up. Going to have a more experienced guy take another look at it when I pick it up.
I also looked at a John Deere 650. Unfortunately, it looked like they spray painted the engine, the belt was frayed and painted green, the coolant resivor was Jerry rigged. Even though it looked and ran good there was little warning signs.
I purchased a new 1025R in the summer of 2021 and thanks to your channel and another popular Chanel I have accessorized it with several of your recommendations. I am impressed with a couple upgrades on the 2023 model mainly the hand brake and the addition of the single point hydraulic connector on the 120 loader. Just for grins I configured a new tractor and was appalled by the almost $8000 price increase in just a couple of years. Yeah, used is definitely the way to go and I might just add the single point hydraulic connector myself.
We will have a 6 port single point connector from DiscountHydraulicHose in just a few weeks.
@@TractorTimewithTim will they also have a 4 port?
@@jimschmitz6192 no. 4 port from Deere only. Of course the 6 port can be used as a 4 port.
Would need 6 port for grapple.
Great video TIm, I swear we have some sort of ESP. I just bought a used 2021 OOS 3039R, price was just to good to pass up.
Still under warranty, and only 60 hours on it. Still looks new. Got for $13-14k off a like spec new 2023.
For sure some good deals to be had out there.
Great deal!
Tim, Thanks for the video. Information coming from someone who owns the equipment you do is much appreciated. You have had a couple of hard lessons and trying to help us from making the same ones.
I have bought 2 used john deere compact tractors. 3320 in 2017 and a cab 4520 in 2021. Best equipment I’ve ever purchased.
No problem with the content today. I think something you could add is that the buyer should be comfortable with the amount of work they will need to do. I bought a project tractor, Kubota BX 1500, that needed major repairs with the engine. Half of the engine was missing. No parts, just a lower end and that's it. It did come with a mower deck, but no loader. So, I thought about what I would use it for, and how much my skill level would match the project. It was a little stretch, but today it's running with a new-used engine and I'm working on putting it back to better than it was originally. I'm adding hydraulics to use a snowblower and sweeper\thatcher.
It's what I want it to be. I have spent a fair amount of money, but I don't think I've exceeded the value in usefulness. I remember this guy on the internet who bought a little tractor and said it was just right for those little jobs where big tractors just wouldn't fit. I have two larger tractors, and they both have their jobs to do, but this tractor just fits. 😉 God Bless and keep doing what you do.
I appreciate the time & knowledge of this topic Tim! We're always looking for a "deal" right?! But your videos really help us to manage those "deals" with caution & that's appreciated for sure! 👍 Keep it up & Stay Safe!! 😊
I find these videos helpful. There are so many brands to choose from and options, that I feel it's difficult for the regular person to know where to start. The resources you have available compared to most makes these vids well worth the time.
Enjoyed the video and the comments about possible issues with a private sale, ie; whether the tractor is stolen or has a lien on it, etc.... I was looking to buy a zero turn mower recently in a private sale when I ran into a possible scam. Too many things didn't add up and I smelled a scam, so that's when I started looking into a tractor like the 1025R. My brother had bought one several years ago and it made sense with all the things he could do with it besides mowing his yard and property. So, that's kind of where I'm looking now. Thanks for the advice and I'll be watching more of your videos.
We are working with cloudstore.co on a ‘reverse auction’ coming this April. Nearly new tractors (5 hours or less) will be listed, and the price dropped every 12 hours until they sell. Even the starting prices will be much lower than new price. …and the tractors have warranty remaining.
Watch our channel for more info.
Very helpful. Thanx for taking the time to do it & even illustrating w/ your own unfortunate experiences
I love my 1025R. It's a 2016 with an H120 loader and a 60D mower deck. The 1025R is so easy to work on, and like you said, the engine and transmission is very reliable.
Tim
Very good video, and I like that you stressed the point again of the legalities of buying a product, whether it has been stolen or may have a lean.
I remember your video about the problem you had with the tractor you had bought at an auction, and at that time I was shocked. I had believed any auction would safe guard against such things, and have been extremely careful with any purchases I have made since then. Yes, it did save me once that I was over cautious, it seemed too good to be true, and shortly after I found out the person was charged with theft of that product. After that I have been even more cautious.
Just recently, not too far away a women bought a car from a residence. The gentleman passed away, and the vehicle was advertised on FB. She went, it was a good deal, bought it, they gave her the title, the next week, she was pulled over because of a problem with the plate and vehicle not matching. When the police ran the VIN, it had been stolen and they forged the transfer of the title, even sold it out of the deceased mans home. Of course she was shocked that anyone could possibly do that to anyone, and is having to defend herself in this as she is in possession of it. Luckily she has the texts, and FB messages of the transaction to cover her, but more than likely will never recoup the money she is out.
I just purchased a new 2023 1025R with loader, drive over deck and turf tires for $23,400. 2023 model has a lot of nice improvements over the 2018 I traded in plus new warranty.
Plus 0% financing
Was the $23400 the price you paid after you traded in the 2018 model?
What did the 2023 model offer over the 2018 model you had?
How many hours on the 2018?
Thanks John
@@patlyle2621
23400 was before trade in. I paid 10000 . 2018 had 1040hrs
@@patlyle2621
2023 has much better swat. Led lights. Single point connector for hydraulics. Beefed up mower deck.
Seat. I hate auto correct
I bought mine in April of 2020. 2019 model 1025r TLB with a 120r loader, 260b backhoe, ballast box, 54d auto connect belly mower. Also a stihl br450 backpack blower and a stihl 94fs line trimmer. Total cost $25403.90
Great info and exactly what I've been looking. Timing was great. Thanks for sharing these kinds of episodes.
Working at a john deere dealer I will say the 2023 1025r has a large amount of improvements though such as a lever style park brake factory led headlights single point hydraulic hookup for loader
Great information Tim thanks. I have a 1025R and can't believe the price of a new one 😮.
Great stuff. Thanks, from a guy that needs a tractor soon and no clue where to start.
As a first time buyer, I need this type of information and appreciate your channel. I have been tracking prices too, and especially for green tractors, they are getting ridiculous. So, I am considering buying used instead of new.
You should seriously consider Orange and red as well. Kioti, Kubota, TYM, Mahindra. All good machines. But you need a good local dealer for whenever a problem occurs. Cheers.
@@davehudson4607 Yep...all of those brands are within an hour or less of where I live. It pays to shop dealers anyway--just like the tractor, so your advice is appreciated.
I bought a used one last year from my neighbor, just an FYI John Deere won't let you assume the loan. I had to pay it off over the phone to buy it. I like not having to pay sales tax, that's a big benefit. It's Tim's fault, I have a bigger Kubota but always wanted a 1025r from watching your channel for years. :-)
I just bought a used Kioti. It's been running great. I found that Super Clean works great for bringing the plastic back to new condition.
I don’t have a tractor yet but I do plan on purchasing one when I find some property. So, I enjoy hearing your insights. Thanks and God bless you and your family!
Absolutely should do the 1 series video. Hey Tim, what kind of bucket was on that tractor? It looks a bit bigger than stock. Thanks.
Light materials bucket, featured during the mulch videos recently
Redlinesystemsinc.com mulch bucket, use code ttwt
Good information Tim. Yes, the inflation and price increases of the last couple years on everything has been bonkers.
I retired a year ago after 17 years pushing Green and did a lot of what you talked about with customers looking at used equipment. Don't have to do it, but you are good to those who have been good to you. But there is quite a lot of information that can be learned as long as it's been run through the JD system. You can't know if some "Buddies with tools" worked on it, but most always, since they have nice warranties today, a customer is going to run it through their dealer.
Mostly I did this with ag equipment, but you will see every service summary and can dive deeper an find the service reports. This is where you see the who what where of it all. And the all important pip's and required or fix as failed warranty.
Owner history and geography - man, you can learn some amazing histories of equipment that make you scratch your head. I was tracing a tractor for a customer coming up at auction once. After mapping it out (google maps is amazing) I found it had been a professional auction tractor for the last 7 years and was rented out a few times putting only 300 hours on it in that time. Makes ya wonder, who lost their ass on that thing originally?
So, got a good relationship with your dealer? They can be of great help. But beware - it's scam city out there - and repo tractors are real! if it's too good to be true? it isn't HAHA!
Great video! I say keep these kinds of videos coming, Tim… here in the southern WV/southwestern VA area, I see prices of used late model utility tractors (40-99 hp) holding up towards higher levels. On a side note, I went to my local dealer last week to price a new 75 engine hp utility cab tractor. I was finally able to get a “ballpark” figure from the salesperson. Ok, well enough but the salesperson never offered to leave his computer screen or his desk to actually show me the tractor (two on the lot just outside the door). Not much enthusiasm or sales craft was my impression. Are new tractor sales so hot that sales folk don’t have to try too hard?
That's part of it. They are very seasonal as people get into harvest season it is hard to get help. Was it kubota? They expect them to sell themselves Ive noticed.
OK what was ballpark on 75 HP John Deere?
I always like the information that you have in these videos. Have you looked to see if there's a regional price difference? In Baldwin County, AL if the tractor runs it's more than likely an immediate $5K regardless of actual condition. The tractors that are usually in this category mostly come from the 60's or 70's.
Good Stuff Tim. Thanks for the info.
Great information. My son bought a used car a few years ago. Yep. Ended up with a lien on it. Nasty time with that.
Just a update on my previous comment. I ended up purchasing that Kubota BX2200. Had another guy that sells farm tractors take another look before I got it and he said it was one of the best used Kubota that's he's seen for the age it was in. Just have to keep up on the regular Maintenance and fix little things. But for 20 years old is in good fair condition.
Tim, your used videos of what to look for, auctions, as well just the general videos gave me a really good understanding what and not what to look for when buying a used tractor.
Congratulations! Thanks for the kind words!
@TractorTimewithTim you're welcome!
Great information, Thank You for sharing and be safe!
Great video. You can find great deals if you’re patient. I bought a 2017 1025R from a guy that lives about 8 miles from me in 2019 for 16500. It had 80 hours on it. We both use the same JD dealership as I have two other JD zero turns. I was able to talk to them and get all the service records. It came with the loader, 60 inch deck and 54 inch quick hitch snowblower. I could never afford new and I got a great loan from my bank. If you take your time you can find a good deal.
Very good information. Appreciate your input after much experience and thought put into this video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! It’s alway a good thing to know the current market.
Love these videos! Keep them coming! On another note, what ever happened to that PTO generator you showcased several months ago? Thought it ended with another vid of the operation? Would love to see that!!
Haven’t got around to it! Need to do some electrical work on house to prepare!
I gave up on john deere, and went to the bobcat 2025 with loader 16900 new.
I moved up from a garden tractor to old Deere compact. I went older due to price and still availability of parts. Good information on buying used.
Very good video for the novice owner. I own a heavy equipment company primarily engaged in highway, road and bridge construction. My equipment, 32 units, range from the smallest ( B26 Kubota BHL ) to the massive ( Cat 395 excavator ). I buy virtually every piece used at auction saving literally millions of dollars over the years. Depreciation is always the buyers advantage, the sellers pain. I follow two simple rules. First, I hire an independent inspector for the pieces I’m interested in. For $1000, sometimes more depending on the complexity of the equipment, I get a thorough, expert inspection. I know exactly what is good, bad or indifferent. Secondly, I know the market and never up bid over what is reasonable. There will always be others and I never buy out of desperation or impulse.
For a tiny subcompact tractor, it only makes sense to buy used. The spread between new and used is often 50% or more. Buying direct from the owner is of course an option, given that they will allow the inspection and hopefully have all the service logs.
For the novice, unless you plan to use the tractor .. no matter the size, on a weekly if not daily basis tackling jobs that normally would be contracted out, skip buying and rent. Much less painful in the long run.
Very helpful comment, thanks! Are you near us?
Thank you Tim,, this video (like alle the others ) is very instructive... and the way you explain and comment your stuff is just like you were talking to ME thank you for being my friend :)
Thanks for the kind words.
I just got a 2025R with FEL, iMatch, loaded tires and a Frontier rototiller with tax for 25k!
Thanks Tim, very helpful information
GReat video and observation! Looking to buy 3 r loader for my 3 r , maybe should go to auction buy tractor with loader then just resale tractor ?maybe could get my loader finally and break even on tractor resaling
I like the tractor purchasing advice. I'd like to see more. Thanks!
Very very helpful. Keep going with these informative articles
In Christ's name
New is out the window here in ireland john deere for the 1 series is nearly 40k it used to be mid 20s but cars vans and jeeps the prices are gone nuts to
Tim great advice, got lucky once 9 years ago with a used no big name tractor now I'm ready to upgrade to bigger and better but its a scary process, not just with the new Vs used, auctions Vs facebook, but all of the makes and models not to mention where they are made but parts and dealer support or lack of. New is a pipe dream as I'm retried on a fixed income but a dependable reliable tractor with accessories will make my remaining golden years more fruitful.
Man Covid took everything up by 200%!
I bought my 2019Yr Model (in July 2020) 1025r for $17k and some change delivered in July 2020.
Sold it then bought a 2021yr model in July 22 with a GM1072, f/r hydraulic SCV Kit, & block heater for $27k delivered!
I’ve been noticing some good deals recently on very capable tractors. For example a used 2019 Yanmar YT359 ROPS with 500hrs for $27K still with 6 years of power train warranty left. That’s a 60hp premium tractor for less than a new 1025R. Also saw a 2020 Kioti DK5310SE Cab with 200hrs and a 6ft mower for $32K. You’re right the used tractor market has leveled off. Might go used for my next tractor if buying new continues to be so expensive.
As always great informative video. Bought my 2210 on in 04 7hrs. Wouldnt trade give away . My granddaughter says PaPa that’s mine. & when there a job she’s not in school out we go . She’ll be the one to wear it out😂
Nothing against Deere. But we just bought a 3515H from Tym cab model for 28000 out the door
Yep. The 1025r price has gone nuts!
I find it very interesting on what the market is doing. Great job Tim thanks.
I like your very informative videos, thank you very much
Not sure how it works in other states but in Ohio I asked a dealer via email about getting a 1025R for my small farm, since the farm is a farm then it falls under farm tax exempt for equipment, seed, feed or chemicals bought for the farm it's self, the John Deere dealer told me a 1025R would be tax exempt for me but someone buying 1 for standard residential use would still pay taxes on it per the norm. Thought I would throw that out there in case anyone like me was looking at 1 for their farm and was wondering if a small tractor like that would qualify for farm use.
Wow, I only paid 24.5K in NY for the same tactor. That's with an iMatch, ballast box and R3 tires.
Let’s get started . Happy Sunday
I'm also going to chime in - would love to see a video more in-depth on used 1-Series shopping. Thanks, Tim!
$29,000+ for a 1025 blows my.mind, just 5 ago my father bought a brand new 1023e with quick attach loader, drive over mower deck and ballast box for $17,000-$18,000. I understand the 1023e is the economy version and the 1025 has more options but over $10,000 jump in 5-6 years.
Good information to help others to make informed decisions on a tractor at a good price
Great video, Tim!
great segment sir. great advice. I've been thinking about upgrading my 1026R to a 2 series tractor. this was a very informative.
Don't expect used prices to remain constant much longer, that's my two cents anyway, the new price increases will drive up used before long. The truth is these tractors have a lot of life left at 1000 hours. Or even 2000. It is a real piece of heavy equipment just a very small one, and most all the late model ones have at most a few hundred hours which means they are really almost new. Not saying nothing could be wrong on one, obviously.
Also, I think 50k will be the going rate in terms of value in 10 years. Demographic changes in the US and the lack of work ethic has prices for capital goods slated to double or triple over 10 years. 50k in today's dollars to be clear. The worth of equipment will go up, not just the inflated dollar price.
Do you think we’re heading into a past Pandemic period? People getting rid of the equipment that they bought when they had more home time to use them?
That and interest rates rising.
Great insight. I loved the information. Thank you
Tim did his friend a solid 😅
Excellent information. Please continue with purchasing advise.
Very useful video. Yep want to see more!!!
I'd like to see videos on what to look for in used tractors. I saw a 2013 1025R at a JD dealer with only 160 hrs and a decent price. It looks good from pictures, but want to know what issues to be aware of on a 10 year old tractor.
Ask for servicing receipts. Check for grease at lubrication points. Check the oil levels. Check coolant. Look for damage. Look at tyre wear. Start the tractor from cold looking and listening for anything unusual. See if the transmission works. Check four wheel drive operation.
Prices will probably trend down but not return to "normal" on used stuff. Probably settle at the typical 80% of new price. And new stuff is definitely not getting cheaper any time soon. I believe people bought subcompacts and compacts only did so because they have bought a home and acreage. Most of whom are probably semi-retired or settled in their career. Those units won't be resold unless the owners run into health problems or this nonrecession recession gets way worse.
Think it was roughly $24,500 range I paid for my 1025R tractor loader backhoe and mower back in 2017. Dealer told me it’s roughly $10,000 more today for same setup brand new. Prices sure have jumped. Similar with pallet forks the set I picked up at the dealer was under $600 in 2019 now I’m told by other looking for a set can’t touch em for under a $1,000
New prices just keep going up. 1/2 ton pick up, just your basic "work" truck listing for 40 grand +. A 1 ton you can do something with 80 grand to 110 grand for the fancy ones. It's insane. I just bought a 940 hour JD 850 1980 model made by Yanmar (love Yanmars) for $5140.00 and it was a deal. Internet shows same tractor at $7500.00 to $11,000.00. 5 years ago that tractor would have been $3000.00....
I think any information you present in reference to a used tractor would be appreciated and can be used across many tractors.
Another great video. Thanks for all you do.
In my area of the country used are still very hard to find hence that is why 2 years ago I bought a new 4052R and I love it
2 yrs ago was totally different market. Drastic changes to today.
Very helpful . Looking to purchase a compact tractor. Thanks for the advice.
Check out our upcoming ‘Reverse Auction’ starting April 2 at cloudstore.co
In 2020 a John Deere 3025E with loader cost $18500 and now the same tractor is $28500. The price jump is crazy.
Yes,. Absurd! I'm hearing that Deere is beginning to get the message. They have lowered priced and increased incentives over the last quarter or so.
The tractors that i have seen on Facebook market place the price these people are asking for a used one, they are totally out of their minds. They are asking more money for their tractors than a new one. Same thing with other objects for sale. The bad thing I don't like about a Deere is they don't use the skid steer hook up for bucket to forks or something else. Another thing is most people who buy tractors don't rev up the engine like it's meant to run. I watched a video and the wife was running the tractor at a lower rpm and I mentioned this and they didn't come back with a comment.
We have a video discussing ssqa vs jdqa. I disagree with your sentiment on that.
I couldn't justify buying a used one. I have been looking at them and you can get a good deal if you are paying cash. With the interest rates at 9% or above, you are better off buying a new one at 0% plus you can get the attachments you want financed with the tractor. Plus you have warranty. I just ordered a new 2023 1025R yesterday with all the goodies i wanted. Going to be fun learning how to use it!
Congratulations!
I think there's 1 detail you make you have over look. Buying new and trading in for different equipment or larger tractor, you can get a great trade-in. Thanks for sharing the video. I'm happy with the new. But to buy larger units, I'm thinking about used
Just purchased 1025 in april tractor,loader w/bucket
&forks,backhoe,48"tiller,60"deck and jd quick hitch 38k out the door
Oh my the new prices are insane. 29k is what I paid for tractor, loader, 54 in mid mower, front snow blower, tiller, hiller, and mid buster.
