    full circle

    In shopping for a tractor the first one I looked at was a mahindra 4110. I then checked out NH, kubota, kioti and mf. Decided at first to buy a kioti, changed my mind to a kubota then back to kioti larger tractor then to kubota again. When it came down to putting down the cash I decided the...

    Kioti dk55 vs kubota l5030

    Seems I have gone full circle in looking at and comparing tractors. I started out looking at the kioti and mahindra then decided to buy a kubota, now reconsidering. I liked the mahindra 4110 but decided I wanted a little more hp. Looked at the kioti dk45 then migrated to the kubota l5030, which...

    L5030 GST or HST

    I was all set to go with the HST. Took the wife to drive it. She didn't like the jerkiness of the HST (a lot due to not being used to the pedal, I'm sure). Plus I am wondering about loss of power of HST. Not sure I like the whine of the HST hydraulics. Have not found a GST to test, but have...

    4110 pricing

    What is a fair price for a 4110 with fel with quick attach bucket? Local dealer says they went up 1000 and wants to charge me 18,900 for tractor PLUS 500 for quick attach. Isn't this high? mike

    Price Check  rethinking L4330 versus L5030; best price L5030

    I was planning on purchasing a L4330 with L853 loader. I need to take care of 110 acres. Mowing with very steep terrain, loader, backhoe applications, auger for fence posts, road maintenance, moving 3x3x8 square hay bales, and maybe tilling 1-5 acres. Have to maintain next to river; so lots of...

    Kubota L4400DT or L4330DT

    1655 difference in pricing. The l4400 did not have quick detach bucket available per dealer. ANyone compare these two? I have not ruled our mahindra 4410 but these kubotas look good. I did rule out Kioti dk45 which I was considering. Too much noise/vibration. It seems the kubota resale is much...

    Price Check  L4330DT & LA853 loader pricing

    Dealer quoted 21,300 plus 650 for remote. Is this somewhat high for pricing in MO? IS the GST or HST worth the extra money? My wife needs to be able to comfortably use the tractor. Am also considering the new L4400DT for 19,595 plus 700 for remote. But dealer says they have no quick attach...

    mahindra 4110 or kioti dk45

    I looked at both these tractors. Looks like either would work for me. The mahindra seemed to have a much smoother engine and somewhat "beefier" build. The kioti has better spec on the hydraulics. Price aside, has anyone compared these two and arrived at specific conclusions? mike
