Wow!  $95,500 for a 1997 R62.  I'm curious what new price was for the combine 13 years ago?  Who says you have to buy green to in order to have a higher resale price later on?

I'm down in Louisville at the National Farm Show, but when I get back to the office I'll dig up what retail "new" price on Gleaner R62 combine was back in late '90's and post here.
