Can\'t find CK20 with loader and backhoe in NE

Wondering if anybody here knows if there are any Kioti CK20HST's available in the Northeast? I am located in MA and have also been looking in NH. Went to one dealer in MA earlier this week and they had one CK20HST and one CK20 manual. Both had loaders but no backhoes. I am looking for a tractor with loader and backhoe. My search has included the Kubota BX23, Massey GC2310, and the CK20 - CK20 is mostly in here because it is so cost competitive. I went to another (alleged) Kioti dealer today and they had not one Kioti on the lot. There was another guy looking for the same thing I was and the person we talked to at the dealer claimed he wasnt going to see any tractors from them until August. This guy seemed a little bit too "used car salesman" to me so I figured I would see what people here know. Thanks

I was at denvir tractor in old saybrook, ct on wednesday. They had one or two with bh and one with just mmm. I beleive the bh was a smc 65a (rhino). I bought my 1914 there and am happy with them.

Don't be too concerned about a non-Kioti backhoe - I believe that Kioti sold the Rhine BH initially. I have the Rhino 65A, and am very happy with it. Color matches perfectly too.

Check your PM's... I have located one for you with a Kioti brand hoe and MMM. CK20HST TLB - $19000, 60" MMM - $2000. I don't know how the prices stack up but that is what I was quoted over the phone. You might be able to do better in person... Junkman

( Don't be too concerned about a non-Kioti backhoe ) I'm not knocking that bh. I have the same on my 1914 with no complaints. When I bought mine, they couldn't get a kioti backhoe and frankly, I like this one better. They look a bit beefier than the kioti backhoe they had on a sold machine.

I agree.
I've been working my Rhino 85 pretty good lately and it works great.
I have been real happy with its performance.

Jim, just because there's no backhoe on the tractor doesn't mean you can't order one and have it put on by the dealer when you make the deal. They probably only put on a loader because backhoes were difficult to come by for a while and they had to get them all out to the backorders. I'm not sure if Woods is making one for the CK20 yet, but they sure make good loaders and backhoes for other Kioti models, and in the matching color too.
As for the price Junkman found for you, you should be able to do better. I know prices are higher up there, but I only paid $16, 681 for TLB and boxblade in January. Kioti did not raise their prices yet either so you should be able to get one for less. Give the dealer Junkman found for you a call and go try the tractor. Then you can deal with them. John
