As part of my tractor search I got some quotes on a Kioti CS2410 (25hp, 19.4 PTO hp) and a Massey 1705 (22.5hp, 18.7 PTO hp) this afternoon.
The price quote I got breaks down as follows. Note that the price is the same for both tractors; I drove both around the dealer field, and could not tell any difference at all between them. All are using the 0% financing (72 months for Kioti, 60 for MF).
Tractor with loader - $14300
60" belly Mower - $2000
+ 8% tax
Total OTD: $17604
Based on my online pricing using the JD and Kubota online configurators, I'm guessing I'd see similar pricing on a BX2360 or 1023E with the equivalent configuration (within a few hundred bucks anyway). Are these prices right on, or a bit high? The dealer said that that was his bottom line price, although I suspect with some competitive offers he might go a bit lower.
One thing I did notice is that the Kioti is really a class ahead of the others for the same money, just not sure I want to go with that yet.
