Hi everyone, new guy here. I'm going to take the plunge this month and get a CUT. I had an afternoon at the local dealer this weekend to look at both the Boomer 30 and CK30. They have almost the same specs, weigh the same, felt the same, and after incentives, both were around $17.5K. That was the first offer. They both came FEL with easy disconnect option, free delivery to my camp and loaded back wheels. The dealer sings the praises of both. The dealer felt the NH had the edge in holding value because of recognition but added that Kioti in the US is growing rapidly while NH had dropped off. Both the engines were said to be made in South Korea. He said with the exception of color, they were almost the same feature-wise.
Is the price in line with what others have experienced? It was a little more than I had expected. I figured, MSRP or just below. Loader's free. I thought the MSRP's on these two were in the high 15's. Do the dealers have as much flexibility as car dealerships? My neighbor said there's very little, but I can't see why. If his first pitch was $17,500, what would be a reasonable counter?
Cheers,
Doc
