JD X320 (is this is a good deal thanks!)

Posted by xraymikey VA (My Page) on

I am wanting to upgrade from what I have now which is a ;
38inch deck
Bolens 6 speed
Dual bagger & Snow plow w/ chains.

I was looking at a LA175
( I haven't read anything good about the LA's)
So I have made My choice to be one of John Deere's Select Series Tractors.
After doing Research.
I have found that the X320 would be perfect for what I intend to to do with it.

I have found a dealer that has a used one here is the specs;2006 X320 has about 125 hrs
48 Inch Deck
New seat replaced due to rips
1 owner tractor was sold here locally

They wanted $2,350 but with my trade he said he would give me $450. So price of the X320 would be around $1,900.

The dealer said they have a new one for $4,200.
(That is alot more than I wanted to spend, I am going to do light snow plowing(live in VA), occasionally would like to arerate and seed w/it, and mostly mowing with it.

Is this a good deal? The mower is 440 miles away want to make sure it is a good deal or not?
Thank ya'll!!

I have a 2009 X320 they can be bought for around $3800.00 new.Thats not a bad price for a used one.Just remember they now come with a 4 year 300hour warranty.Back in 2006 I think it was just 2 years so its out of warranty im sure.Guess it depends if that warranty matter to you or not and what it worth to you personaly.

"I have a 2009 X320 they can be bought for around $3800.00 new"

johndeere, Don't presume that JDs can be bought everywhere at a discount. Current SRP on an X320 is $4099 and there's a promo till 3/2010 offering $200 off. In many areas dealers hold fast to suggested retail and some dealers charge retail plus and then add setup and freight charges.

xraymikey, That's a fair deal, not a steal. A dollar's worth for a dollar. If you are genuinely interested try to get the dealer to give you a warranty of some length like 6 months... just to cover your behind.
