CK20S HST

Certainly a CK20 with QA adapter would be a nice setup too.

Can anyone with a CK20 post a picture of it next to a full size pickup?

Thanks.

Thanks.

This is the best I can do. There is a full size pickup to the left behind it. Note the operator position is higher than a pickup driver's seat and that the tractor hood is at least as high as the pickup hood. On a BX I think both would be maybe a foot lower.

This shows that I was able to carry the 500lb Bush Hog cantelevered and strapped into the loader bucket and lift it for a 3mile trip. Tough not so little loader on the CK20.

Hope this will help..






Let me know if you want anything else
The New Holland is a subcompact TZ22

I thought someone had once upon a time posted a photo of the CK20 next to a BX, both with the buckets raised. The difference was quite significant. Don't know who or where that photo was posted.

Oops, I just remembered where I saw the photo. It wasn't a CK20, but rather a K2 vs bota 7xxx something in the photos sections:

The CK looks big next to the pickup, but it's still hard for me to judge the size. I know when I got on the BX24 yesterday, it felt really small. In fact, without the load and hoe on it, it's probably not much bigger then my current craftsman.

If the CK20 is only that much larger then the TZ22, it's much smaller then I thought it was going to be. I know a guy with a TZ18 and I felt like it was a toy tractor. The bucket on the FEL just barely cleared the top of my pickup.

Thanks all for the pics. It would be really nice if I could see a pic of the CK20 next to a TYM 233, next to a Kubota BX 24.

The CK20 is larger than the BX24. A side by side comparison would be nice. I am still on the fence which way to go. The BX24 seems the best fit for my property and the mower completes it. The CK20s power is impressive. MUCH better hydraulics. FEL lifts twice the BX rating and the Backhoe is much smoother with 180 degree swing. The CK20 is priced roughly $2000 more than the BX. The Kubota Bseries still doesn't match up to the CK20 in performance and price. The two downsides to the CK is
1. Relatively new line, Kubota went through this twenty years ago
2. The Mower is ridiculosly priced and a lack of a front blade hurts

Everyone who has a CK seems happy with it, so #1 may improve over the next few years. But remember, as they get recognized as a solid machine they will adjust the price accordingly.

The CK is the biggest of the three. Mainly length and hood height compared to the TYMs. But the T273 is considerably more hp. The BX is much smaller. A better comparison is the the bota 7xxx series. But they are light and high centered. Any of them would work for you.

All I saw on the 1st pic was some smiling fool!
