Buying Advice Buying Process

Both times, the dealer had it in stock. Other than tires filled, remotes installed, it was ready to go. Like tomorrow afternoon type thing.

We also bought a Kioti side by side from the same dealer. He had to buy one from another dealer, installed all the accessories I ordered and still delivered it in 3 days.

Mine was on the lot, already prepped..........It was delivered about 4 hours after I wrote the check. He brought it up as soon as he closed his business for the day.

That's what I'm talking about. I don't mind waiting a few days for them to go over it and make sure everything is good. I think I'd be so impatient if I had to wait a few weeks.

I'm looking at the Mahindra 3016 HST with FEL. I don't think there is anything special I want to add except maybe rear hydrolics for a hydrolic top link. Oh and some bucket hooks. So yeah, I'll probably have to wait a a couple weeks.

If they have the parts for the rear remotes in stock, it shouldn't take more than a day or two to get it to your door. And if you are going to use a boxblade, or rear blade......consider top n tilt.

 

[cletus99]

I have a box blade already and I've seen a video on top n tilt on YouTube. That would be sweet and something I have thought about. Is that something that a dealer normally installs or is that an aftermarket option that I would have to install? What is the approximate cost for a top n tilt?

Thanks for the heads up Don, sorry for the delay cletus99, but have been out building links today and just now saw the PM from Don87.

A complete "TnT" set for your 3016 is $585 + shipping cost. You will need some sort of diverter for the 2nd hydraulic due to the availability of only a single rear remote. I can get you a complete electric diverter kit that will bolt in place of the OEM remote location and have a control button that has to be fastened on the OEM control lever for about $500. I know that the last complete kit like this that I did for a guy, his total with shipping was $1124.

Contact me over on the Fit Rite website if you are interested.

Thanks everyone for your replies. I'll get with you mntviewranch when I get the tractor. It'll be a while though. Gotta pay off some bills first and get through this sequester. Still crossing my fingers I don't get furloughed. Been delayed 2 weeks so far.
