Default Business a bit slow

Was talking to my JD dealer bout the 3320 yesterday. Seems business is way off, according to JD corporate. He said the 0%/48 mo may go away at the end of July, but believes the 0%/36 mo will be around for a while to help as a sales incentive.
Seems that the only hoe that JD made available for the cab tractors is the 7ft 475, he says.
I tried to get him to take the 66 Malibu in as a trade with the 2520, but didn't work.

There has been a lot of talk on the other forum that it is the 375 (7.5 foot depth) and the 485 (8.5 foot depth) BHs that fit on the cab tractors.

its a shame you haft to loose digging depth with a cab
tractor...... seems to me thay could of adapted the 448
to fit the cab tractors. all thay needed to do was make a longer
attachment beam. to stick out a little ferther. should'nt be so
hard.

Yeah, you have a point, but when moving up from a 46bh to the 375 I'm still gaining a foot of digging depth. Since this is not a commercial need, but only one of convienence it doesn't bother me so much.

Chris....
Engineering costs vs return...Deere obviously didn't see the return...

It makes one wonder how much longer the current models will exist???

I would think that Deere is about to release a complete new series of small tractors and finish the split from Yanmar...

I used to own an ant farm but had to give it up. I couldn't find tractors small enough to fit it.

Craig , make sure you check all specs of this 375 , looseing a foot digging depth is bad enough. but make sure it has as much dipper and bucket curle power .
as a 448 . i sure would not want it to be any weaker.
seems like a lot of money to pay to go backwards.

Sure will Chris, thought I read somewhere on the JD site that either of the hoes could mount on the cab tractor, but information is still sketchy. I gotta find out what the outside width of the 3320 with turf tires mounted is, so I can compare some additional implements. Anybody able to give some dimensions?

Nuru , i understand. but what i have gathered , you will use your machine for alot of mowing. so turfs are ok for you.
Craig is suppose to be a country boy...
and he is suppose to did in the Dirt. for that
he needs Dirt tires. like R4's
Well , i tried to wiggle out of that. i hope i did
a good Job.....
