Before You Rent or Buy

Reserve visit anytime; order times vary by model. Ask:

• What is the out-the-door price with freight, prep, taxes and fees?
• For used machines: how many hours, and can I see the service records?
• What warranty is included, and is an extended warranty offered?
• Do you offer financing, and at what rate and term?
• Do you take trade-ins?

Tips

• Renting the same model for a week is a cheap way to test before you buy.
• Dealer service capacity matters as much as price for heavy machines.
• Ask for an itemized quote so you can compare dealers fairly.
