2019 DK5510

[cooperman]

I 'm looking for opinions on a 2019 DK5510. It has 1100 hrs. on the clock, new fel, telescoping lower links and stabilizers and is gear drive with a mechanical shuttle. It has the remain factory warranty and appears to bear in good shape. Can get for $25,500, otd. What do you think.

Despite having a Kioti myself....how much factory warrant is left with 1100 hours on the clock?

Either way, that's A LOT of hours on a 2 year old machine.

The remaining full warranty expires 3/20/22, the emissions warranty expires 3/20/25 and the power train expires 3/20/26. The tractor was a rental that was used in the vineyards, the loader is being added now along with top and tilt. There have been two warranty claims one for a hydraulic seal and the other for broken fan blade that damaged the radiator which was replaced. From what I have read I understand the fan coming apart is not an isolated issue.

Kioti warranty is calendar days and not hour limited, as far as I know. So if it had the 6yr warranty, it would still have 3yrs remaining regardless of hours.

It only had a 3yr warranty?

In service date was 3/20/20.

Very well could be. I haven't had to use my warranty yet (knock on wood), so I wasn't sure.

However, after looking at their website it appears they have a 24 month or 1500 hour coverage limit.

To me, I'd price a new DK5510 with the options you want just to see how much more it would be to get a full warranty, not a 3.5 month warranty.

 

[cooperman]

It would be approximately $6000.00 more.

Seems a little high to me based on the price for new.

That comparison was actually for a DK5010. I would expect a similar 5510 would be 1500 to 2000 more based on the difference between a 4510 and a 5010.
