Common attachments that can add significant value to this machine.
Include your attachments when you request a valuation for a more accurate estimate.
Average usage is ~1,700 hours/year. Lower hours command a premium, while machines over 13,600 hours see steeper discounts.
Excellent condition machines can bring 15-25% more than average units. Structural damage, leaks, and worn undercarriage reduce value significantly.
Regional demand, transportation costs, and local construction activity all affect pricing. Markets in the South and Midwest typically see higher demand.
Attachments like GP bucket and rock bucket add value. Include them in your valuation for a complete picture.
Documented maintenance history with dealer records can add 5-10% to the value. Unknown service history creates buyer hesitation and lowers offers.
Production years 2001–2007. Newer emissions-compliant models (Tier 4 Final) generally retain value better than older generations.
