Dealership called yesterday and said they could deliver my new CK 4020HSE with cab today. It arrived about 9:00 AM and looks great. The whole buying experience was very good. The dealer didn't add in extras or fees and didn't even require a deposit or down payment for my order. They...

Hope you escaped Helene with minimal damage. We had major damage here and is why I need a tractor larger than my BX. Got the house repaired but still have hundreds of trees down. Been having "fun" dealing with FEMA today.
Stopped by the Kioti dealership today to check progress. Wasn't sure of the procedure of how their new machines were put together. With this dealership they have a separate building and crew that only puts new machines together. I hope that means they can put everything together without...
It was interesting that a few non-Kioti dealer websites had a long writeup about how purchasing a Kioti was "risky" due to lack of dealerships, parts, service, etc. For them to go to the trouble of criticizing a rival machine tells me that they must be losing a lot of sales to Kioti.
The Kubota...
I have owned 3 Kubota tractors over the years and have enjoyed each. I sold my last Kubota with plans to purchase a larger Kubota to help with Western NC Hurricane Helene clean-up. I priced a Kubota from my long time dealer and decided to price a Kioti as well (different dealer). With all...
I have ordered a CK4020 cab with a loader and backhoe and have not been able to determine the length of the machine in this configuration. The trailer I have had for several years is a car hauler type that is 19 feet long with a 16 foot bed rated for 10K. I would only be trailering my tractor...
Thanks for the advice on the AC condenser. I'll keep an eye on it. I live just south of Marion on a ridge so we didn't have the flooding but according to the Emergency Services Director our neighborhood had the worst wind damage in the county. Took seven of us 3 days to cut a quarter mile out...
Ordered a CK 4020SEH with cab a week ago that is supposed to arrive in two more weeks. It will be replacing a much beloved 2008 Kubota BX23 TLB. We're still cleaning up hurricane Helene damage here in Western North Carolina and I need a larger machine.
I had access to a Takeuchi skid steer...
Thanks! That's good to know.
I changed out my HST Kubota to Chevron multi-purpose fluid a few years ago and it developed a fairly loud transmission whine that got louder with increased speed. Immediately drained the system and went back to the UDT2 and the whine went away. Surprised me that...
Ordered a Kioti CK4020HSTSE this morning and have been looking at maintenance need for my machine in the future. I searched for compatible fluids but it seems most posts are 2018 or older.
On my Kubota it seemed only the Super UDT2 transmission fluid worked well. I downloaded the owner's...
Haven't used it in years but back in 1986 I bought a 1969 Chevy pick-up with a 305 engine that had a bad valve tapping noise. Bought the truck for nearly nothing with the belief that I would have to do a valve job at the very least. A mechanic friend convinced me to pour MMO directly into the...
