I looked at at Branson 2400 HST yesterday. It's a nice tractor made in South Korea and assembled in Rome, Ga. They had a demo model with 5 hours on it and a 2 year warranty. you can get an nice excavator for it, but this deal came with a front end loader and a rear finish mower. $13,500 delivered to the cabin.
They had a package deal on new ones with a front end loader, bush hog, box blade and tandem axle trailer for $15,995.
They have a dealership in Rome and in Leesburg.
I called the Mahindra dealer in Centre and in order to get pricing anywhere near that I had to drop down to a 19hp tractor and it was still $14,900 for the FEL and finish mower. They wanted 5.9% financing. Oh and by the way, everyone talking about the Mahindra 7 year warranty... That's only a power train warranty. The reat of the machine is only 2 years.
Never owned a tractor so my opinion isn't worth anything but 5.9% isn't very attractive at all.
Not when you can get 0% at practically any equipment dealer.
Y'all know me better than that. There is a chance of" Slim and None. That I'm financing anything.
I'm looking at a Mahindra like I want for $10k. I'll try to offer them $9k and walk away. It's a dealer, so they have some fluff in there.
