Hi Folks,
Trying to boil down some criteria, and one external factor is dealership quality. I've talked to dealers from all three of my short list manufacturers (one green, two orange), and they have all been very helpful. The problem is that one of them (Kioti) doesn't have a dealership nearby. The closest is almost 100 miles away.
The dealer in question said that they will only charge gas for any transport required for service (pretty awesome if you ask me), but miles are miles. The other two have dealerships within 20 miles.
I'm only going to be using this thing for residential use, so I'm hoping service calls requiring a transport are few and very far between. Honestly the biggest obstacle i see now is getting down there to test drive.
Thanks in advance for any input.
