Why this confidence level

The make was entered manually. Direct asking price comparables exist for the exact year and model (2022 CAT 938M ranging from $168,000 for 4,350 hours to $218,000 for 880 hours). However, the subject unit lacks specific operating hours and overall condition details, requiring a wider valuation spread.

Market analysis

Stable market

Late-model medium wheel loaders maintain steady demand across construction and agricultural sectors. Values for 2022 models reflect standard age depreciation without severe market spikes or drops.

Regional pricing

National estimate assumes average U.S. market conditions. Midwest regional listings show consistent availability, with minimal freight adjustment needed for standard national distribution.

Hours and usage

Operating hours were not provided. The valuation range assumes standard usage for a 2022 machine (2,000 to 3,500 hours). Lower hours near 1,000 would push value toward the high end ($195,000+), while heavy hours over 4,500 drag value toward or below the low end ($135,000).

Data quality

Target equipment lacks operating hours and physical condition grade. Valuation is modeled against direct asking comparables with appropriate adjustments for trade vs. retail positioning.

Factors considered

  • Unspecified operating hours on the target unit require a broad conservative range.
  • Two direct 2022 CAT 938M asking price comparables serve as baseline anchors.
  • Absence of completed sales data necessitates relying on asking prices with customary negotiation discounts.
  • Brand and model recognition are exceptionally high for late-model Caterpillar wheel loaders.
