Been shopping again, priced a GC1705 with mid mount mulching mower, FEL, loaded rear tires, and fluids,filters for first service 15,200 delivered. I am so confused at this point Ebay has a GC2400 loader trailer and mower for 14999 brand new but not near me is 15,200 reasonable or should I keep shopping?

For $201 and it's a local dealer I would jump on that deal. Does the EBay deal have a single axle trailer? I'd be afraid to tow a MF GC tractor with it.

I found this on the web.

MSRP for a GC1705 is $14,417 (tractor/loader) and TLB packages start at $19,729 (MSRP).

Yep single axle trailer. So the 15200 is fair in your opinion?

I saw a 1705 at a show with backhoe, Fel, and mower and the show special price was $19685. Just an FYI.

Most dealers charge $300-$400 for the first 50 hour sevice. So that is a good price I think.

You're in the ball park based on my experience. You might be able to save a few bucks going elsewhere, but I don't think it will be significant in the grand scheme of things.
