Bad mouthing a Kioti?

[DK35vince]

Far as the comment from DKVince, any A.H. that looks down on farmers needs ask theirselves.... where does my food come from?.......DUH. What a idiot.

Funny I was thinking how idiotic your comment was.
Just because a homeowner has a compact tractor for home use they are a wannabe farmer???
That's the dumbest thing I ever heard.

Those colors reflect materials, craftsmanship, and design, hence the discussion. Old designs built in old factories are not going to compete with modern CAD models made in dedicated robotic factories. HS

I think the Kioti factory is actually more automated than many of the Kubota factories, which is partially why they can sell the tractors for a bit less than Kubota. Korea isn't China or India by a long shot and I'm pretty impressed with the details of my tractor is put together. They didn't cut any corners IMO.

I agree, I was really referring to JD stuff. I think you'll find the leader though in S. Korea is LS now not Kioti. HS

I've found that many of the sales folks at tractor dealers know far less about tractors than I do....and I'm not nearly an expert. I think that's why many of them can't really talk to the merits of other brands, and just talk smack.

Funny, I see more people here buying kioti than ls. LS don't even have their own forum.

LS has had their forum on TBN since about 2010, and out sells Kioti in S. Korea. I'm not taking sides just informing. HS

LS has to share a forum with a bunch of others including my Ventrac. I don't live in S Korea, do you? Do you even have proof of sales commander?

Go look LS has their own forum, they don't share. Yes, I bought an LS U 5030 in 2011, I gave it to my son. I've been to S Korea have you? Ever been to a tractor factory? It's really a nice tractor. Skipper or Captain will do fine! Thanks, Whats your point. If your point is Kioti is the biggest or only S Korea tractor manufacture and LS is a honorable mention, you would be wrong. HS

Well Spaceman, LS is listed under brand specific a subforum. Have proof of sales.???

Yes, I looked at corporate web sites, do your own homework. LS Tractor Histoy Pages | LS Tractor Official Site
If current sales trends continue TBN may have swap Kioti and LS in the forum.
