Hi, visiting over here from the NH room and not feeling the love right now. Had a TC-24D for going on 11 years and had its first real problem a few weeks ago with a hydro leak that the dealer can't seem to fix, running tally hitting into the $2500 range so far and been without a mower for 3 weeks. Bought it new, at 960 hours, take good care of it.
The dealer has always been good to me, and a well established and respected one at that. They recently took on Kioti as well. I'm considering possibly trading for either another NH or the Kioti 2510. I know I'm just visiting, and please don't take this the wrong way, but the Kiotis seem to be a little rougher and less sophisticated at first glance. They also have quite a few things that appeal to me, like extra weight. The FEL is narrower, not a huge deal. The biggest issue, and I'm told will be resolved soon, is no mid mount mower! I pull a 600 lb roller when I mow, so mid mount is pretty important to me.
Any experience out there with the 2510? Like it? Pros? Cons? I know I'm in the Kioti room and expect a little bias, that's fine. I'm also experienced with tractors and open to suggestions/opinions.
Thanks! Brad
