    That was my surprise. There is basically no different in price between Kioti, Kubota, and Bobcat. Financed price is almost exactly the same no matter what color. Or at least there isn't where I am located. I've had several responses from people getting the Bobcat tractor for 19k financed...

    25K cap financed :) Don't have 25k in cash but can put money down. Kioti and Kubota are the exact same price. Bobcat was 4k cheaper but the guy on the phone said he didn't know if that was a cash price and financing would be more.

    We do leave nearish a Mahindra dealership. They have the 1626 for $27,999 for 0 percent financing for 84 months 10% down.

    Yes it does! So far we've changed out the points for a electronic ignition, replaced the governor, replaced the carburetor, upgraded from a generator to an alternator, some new wiring in a few places. Next up is a gasket set as it gets warm then it won't run. Love having a classic but it's...

    I'd say it depends on when someone sets the MF35 (gas) on fire when it needs another repair.

    I've gotten some great advice! It boils down to finances and availability. There's a lot out on the market and I don't want to get brand blind and miss a better tractor for less, or get brand blind and get a lemon. I certainly can't pay cash as others suggested, otherwise I probably wouldn't...

    I am also looking into MF, most likely the MF 1800 as they seem to be a long running company with local dealers. Again, budget is firm no more than 25K prefer under that. Not set on brand by any means, most be readily available in Indiana and long standing enough we don't have to worry about...

    The MF 35 spends more time not running than running so I'm not sure about that.

    If either one of you would be willing to make the payments for me I'd be more than happy to buy whatever size or brand of tractor you think I need.

    Thank you everyone. I think I will get a quote for the Branson 2515 and 3015 as well.

    Thank you. I may go and see them in person and ask more directly about the cost and "last year's model"

    Zero interest. Includes the loader. No DEF. HST. This is the 2023 version of the ck2610 w more bells and whistles plus inflation so probably the reason for the increase, had I bought in 2022 it would have been the older model and cheaper. I did ask if he had any ck2610 left and he said...

    I think I may end up going KIOTI. I watched some reviews and comparably it looks like the KIOTI have a higher loader bucket capacity and some other features that beat out KUBOTA. I did speak with a KIOTI dealer and he has a CK2620 (which replaced the CK2610) for $24,999. That's probably the...
