First tractor purchase

[MtnViewRanch]

When you do order your tractor, do your best to get at least one if not both of the remotes with the float function. You will find it invaluable with the top & tilt set that you will be getting as some of the goodies that a person adds to their tractor.

Good luck with your decision and purchase.

The ck 35 price is 25% higher than what I paided in November.

I find both priced very high, and that says a lot coming from a Canadian. Unless that DK has a cab, he's trying to pull something, that's more than I paid for my DK 45 hst cab and our prices are always higher.

Those estimates seem like list prices. Very high. There is enough regional variation to make comparisons difficult but aim for 10-15% lower on each.

Did you ask if that was the cash price (lower)? I called two dealers in Ohio this week, and got quotes on a DK40SE Hydro with FEL, and R4s. One quoted $22,500, and the other $23,400.

Yes, those were cash prices.

Thanks for all the responses. I am getting some additional quotes from dealers in state and out of state also. I was thinkning more like $22,500 for the DK40 based upon what the dealer rep originally told me on the CK35 and the comments on this forum that the DK would be about $4000 higher. I want to stay local but certainly not for that money when I enjoy road trips anyway and have access to a few trailers!

Every dealer in Maine and New Hampshire that I have called has given me the same cash price of $23,000 for the DK40SE HST, FELw/ bolt on cutting edge and R4's. It was an additional $8500 for the Kioti 2485 BackHoe, and a cash & carry quote of $10,500 for a Woods BH90X.

New England is about the highest price market in the country. I ended up buying my DK40 from an aggressive dealer in PA. Saved thousands. If you don't need the tractor tomorrow and can adjust to a delivery schedule that gives the remote dealer flexibility you might get a good deal.
