Maybe there's more Green equipment in general used by farms but it sure seems the recent sales have a large amount of Green equipment.

Other than those 2 really nice floaters, not much for red, yellow or Orange/Red (Massey)

The low hours, Red and blue tractors came from JD in Humboldt..

I am thinking the same John Deere must sell far more stuff than the others.

Nothing scientific about my survey but just driving around SK there seems to be a LOT of really shiny inventory sitting on dealer lots. As Yoda says "Hard to predict is the future" but it could be a really smart move to turn some of that inventory into cash now rather than later.

JD does more business with the big 'progressive" operators(read:highly leveraged) with multiple unit deals and leasing. More of these units get rolled over so more late model trades. It work well on the way up but will be a double edged sword on the way down.

When you hear about some of the nightmares the machinery flipping BTOs have with their "seasonal" help, its a bit of a gamble buying their "ab-used" equipment. Buy accordingly, allow some room for the some big bills, parts and labour are pricy.

How much of that stuff wasn't serviced properly? A lot of it is coming from guys with hired help who just jump on and to hell with it. After all, it isn't his own and will be going back to the dealer anyway.

Partners the 9230 went for $134 are you the happy owner?

[mustardman]

Sounds like a good enough price
