Combines Build and price at CIH website

Yes the price is up there a bit. I am sending this out to all the top BRASS at CNH. Put a break down on here as to how you come up with the price of that new combine. Example How much is labor cost, warranty, RandD, shipping, margin, hold back for dealer,cost of raw parts and assembly. Come On CNH brass lets see how you can justify this price of a new combine that in most cases costs more then a bungalow in metro Toronto or New York City or 100 acres of PRIME irrigated farm ground in corn belt.(That I might add will go UP in value after you purchase it where as a combine once you drive it off the dealers lot is about 15% less then what you paid for it) So CNH execs. post away explain it. Oh and all you bleeding hearts that will go on about profits and margins and do I not want to make a profit on what I do for a living. If you are not a CNH exec that can explain the question asked STFU. Yes I am mad this rant would go on a lot longer but I have to leave so take care all.

in most cases these web sites show list price, you can usualy take off 21 to 23 percent and that will give you the purchase price.

While I agree with you that machinery is getting extremely high, I dont understand why your all wound upIJ No one is forcing you to buy one. The list price really doesn't matter because it all depends what the dealer has into the new combine and what they will give you for yours.
