New Equipment

[HappyFarmer]

Now to start, just so everyone knows, we have never been the farmer to buy brand shinny new equipment. And we will probably ever be in a position to do so.

I have a friend who is in sales for New Holland. He was telling that a new order for a 2016 9.09 combine is priced at...... Drum roll please.... the sweet price of $875,000!!!!!!

But wait! You can move up to at 10.90, largest combine on the market for.... wait for it.......

$925,000!!!!!!

Kind of knocked me off my chair.

What is this going to do to the price of used equipment......

Its hard to fathom..... Richie Bros are going to be rubbing their hands together. ......

they have to keep upping the price that way they have no money tied up in your trade in.

Of course that is MSRP.

for comparison sake what are bigger pieces of construction equipment worth. Which generates more "net" profit? A combine or catdozer or trackhoe

$875CAD = $650USD

Is that coming with headers?

There are always options and solutions.

With the fed election, who or which party would be first to offer or revive the " investment tax credit"?

Every year we get three new ones this year with the dollar where it's at were not trading anything off.
My S690s were bought with a par or close to dollar last June.
