Walk around of the New MT 226E by LS Tractors with Chris Murphy | Murphy Brothers Trading

[@jeffburgeson3490]

I am on my 2nd ls tractor. It's in the shop for the 3rd time. 1st time when new blowing fuses. 2nd time fuel valve injector pump. (I think) 3rd time synchronizer 0:00 went out. Fuse fixed quickly. Fuel part was told 63 dealers waiting on Same part. Dealer ended up putting used part in to get me going. Now be in for over a month and told they don't know when they will get the part. Is it dealer, or LS that's the problem? Love the tractor, hate the service.

I looked at it and sat on it in person. Overall, I was very impressed. My only complaint was the hydrostat. Just not enough leg room to operate the foot pedals. The shuttle has much more leg room. Much more comfortable.

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

I still prefer the hydro, and I am a big guy as you can see in the video. That is a WHOLE LOTTA ugly, right there! HAHA. That is the reason LS makes them both ways. Some folks prefer HST, some like shuttle. The Lord made us all unique. Thanks for the input. Come buy one from me if you haven't already. Thanks, Chris Murphy

What’s MSRP on this tractor?

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

I'll have to look up MSRP. Sorry I just saw this. First of the month is tough with adjusting for new programs, rebates, finance options, and prepping new pricelists for my sales people. I do know off hand they are offering 0% finance for 84 months in July. Give us a call and I'll price one for you.

I had an air filter cap like that one on another tractor I had. I hated it! The standard Donaldson housing with the clips is much better in my opinion.

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

I actually like it much better now I know to pull the latch further.

How much for the tractor

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

I can't price on an open forum like YT, but I will be more than happy to price one for you if you will give me a call at 662-720-0022. Thanks, Chris Murphy

Is the Mitsubishi engine ever put in anything else

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

Mitsubishi is a huge engine manufacturer. They also build a bunch of other machines and tech. I am not aware of what all tractors run the Mitsi engine, but I am sure a quick google search might help you out. Here is just a short list of what runs this brand engine... Mitsubishi Diesel Engine Industries & Applications Generators for marine and industrial applications. Power trains for excavating or construction equipment. Water pumps. Compressors. Ship propulsion systems. Agriculture equipment.

[@tommartin8155]

Depends on the price. If they jazzed. It up and raised the price, then I'd rather have the older model.

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

Cash prices are higher than last year, but only about like the normal yearly increase. However, we now can offer a finance deal that is out of this world. In July 2024, they are offering to qualified buyers, 0% for 84 months in lieu of the cash rebates. If you must finance, this is certainly the way to go. CASH is always the cheapest way to buy anything. Back to the price increases, I am 3rd generation tractor dealer. Tractors have gone up 3 to 6% every year... in good times or bad. My history is with IH, CaseIH, Kubota, Yanmar, Case Construction, LS Tractor, and Mahindra. Outdoor power like mowers and handheld stuff is about the same way.

[@tommartin8155]

Thanks for the info. There still a great value compared to other brands. I think your going to sell the daylights out of that model.

[@MurphyBrothersTradingCo]

I think you are absolutely correct. The LS MT226E/HE/HEC models will soon be one of our most sold models. Thanks for watching!
