Dave, I've been waiting since 1/26/04. I believe that may beat you, not that I get any great joy from that! John

</font><font color="blue" class="small">( What about if a guy needs parts I don't think I would want to wait. )</font> Charlie, I don't think you'd have the same problem with parts as we're having with Backhoes. Parts are stocked in great supply at the two distribution centers here in the States, unlike backhoes and other implements. I was told that Kioti had only ordered 70 BHs on their last order because I think they didn't expect such an increase in sales as they had. You will find the problem exists with all the brands, for various reasons. John

<font color="blue">The CK20 TLB package has become a very popular package and rightly so. </font>

When I asked TBN forums initially about their thots of the power and functionability (word?) of the CK20TLB I was told why not rent a real TLB. However I was stubborn headed as you can tell and decided against them. I purchased my Ck20 and waited 2 months for my BH and one month for my subframe attachment, they sent the subframe attachment for a DK35 initially. I bot from Carver Equipment and they said it was the first CK20TLB that they had ever sold and even put it on the website. Since then they have sold 3 more. For some reason, I'm not sure why, but in the last 6 months CK20TLB's have become popular and rightly so.

I did not mean to imply that New England States are last on the list. My sinceere appoligies for that miscommunication.
TO ME... it seams as though the New England States sell a LOT of small tractors with hies on them. Perhaps the demand for this product has surpassed the wildest dreams of Kioti / Dadong. That is a good problem to have.
Perhaps the steel situtation will have far reaching effects on all machines... reguardles of color.
I do know that in my area, the steel erector are giving a 7 day bid on a building. You make up your mind on the 8'th day.... start all over.

I just hope when I'm ready to buy there's going to be a couple of ck20tlb in stock if not well I guest I'll have to be patient and dream a little longer. But it will be worth it that kioti is one fine tractor. /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif Charlie

Well, I called Rusty today and he said that the BH's are in Texas. From there they will travel to the distribution center in N.C. From there they will get shipped to the dealers. When is anybodies guess. Hopefully they are going to ship to us who are waiting promptly . Time will tell. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif
