What is my LS Tractor tractor worth?
LS builds its own tractors and has built compacts for other brands for years. Buyers who know that treat a used LS as a bargain.

What LS Tractor tractors bring used
Typical asking ranges for sound machines. Hours, a loader, a cab and where you are standing move every one of these.
How LS Tractor holds value
LS used values sit roughly 12 to 20 percent under Kubota for the same horsepower and hours, which is the whole reason buyers shop them.
The MT2 and MT3 machines are the movers. Loader included, good tires and under 1,000 hours is the combination that sells fastest.
Because LS has built compacts for other nameplates, mechanics are comfortable with them — that keeps the floor higher than most value brands.
What this estimate cannot see
- Dealer distance. Buyers pay more when parts and service are close by.
- Service records. A folder of receipts is worth real money to a cautious buyer.
- Photos. Clean pictures from all four sides regularly add more than any option on the machine.
- Timing. Tractors sell best ahead of hay season and planting. The same machine brings less in the wrong month.
Common questions
- Put the horsepower, model year, hours and condition into the calculator on this page and it returns two ranges: what to ask selling it privately, and what it would likely bring at auction. Then type your exact model into the comparables box to check it against what machines like yours ask on the wider market.
- LS used values sit roughly 12 to 20 percent under Kubota for the same horsepower and hours, which is the whole reason buyers shop them.
- Hours only matter against age. A tractor puts on roughly 200 hours a year, so a 10-year-old machine with 2,000 hours is average. Half that adds value; double it takes value off — usually 15 to 25 percent at the extremes.
- A standard equipment listing is free. Equipment auctions carry a 4% seller fee ($75 minimum) and a 5% buyer premium ($75 minimum), both capped at $2,500, and no subscription is required to start one.
