I have a friend that sells them for a living and he is always giving me the low down on those things. He has done it so much he gets a little bored with it but I turn into a 10 year old any time I see one of those things. He said it will set you back about $235,000 plus about $15,000 more if you want a 3 point hitch and about $15,000 more if you want the fancy powershift transmission.
