: : : : what is a John Deere 2030, gas, in good shape with good rubber worth, it has a 145 loader on it and the hour meter has 700 hrs on it which the seller said he wasn't sure that was right.
: : : A guesstimate with out seeing the beast and basing it on Utah prices would be $10 - 12,000.
: : 10,000 to 12,000 ?????????
: : Thats crazy for a 2030 in gas. If they are selling for that out there, I think I will start buying them here and hauling there to resell!!
: : NO silly,not 10,000-12,000 ten dollars to 12,000.
I envy you flat landers! Out here in the Uintah Basin we have to haul everything in by truck. The nearest railhead is over a hundred miles away and is over one of the toughest passes in Utah. We usually get things in from Salt Lake (150 miles away) and by the time stuff gets here we've paid thru the arse for what we get. Get this, I have a price list, 3020 (bare) $8900, 2020 gas loader $8900, 4010 $9500, 4020 $11900, 850 $6900, it probably would be worthwhile to buy & sell, but who wants to haul old tractors over the mountains?
