ck27 or ck35

[jimmyj]

Oldtrout, you make more sense than me. I am convinced the 27 is the way to go now.

Either way you will feel obliged to spend the extra $1k

Well if money[1,000] is not a problem,would go with the 35hp one,like said you can use a 6ft mower with it[hog],plus,if tractors are same size,just bigger motor,you could outrun ck27's and ck30's with it. Never know when you might find your self in the middle of a pack of kioti's,and you don't want to be bringing up the rear.

Thanks everyone.

Which one are they going to stop making? I mean they got a 25,27,30 and 35 all with same frame? Do they all have basicly same motor,my book lists different models for motors,but was just wondering if it was just same motor with jacked up govenor or fuel pump or something like that.

They have stopped making the CK25. Once inventory is depleted, there won't be any more. I'm wondering if the CK30 isn't next to go. Seems awfully close to the CK35.

I'd like to see them up the hp on the CK20 frame a bit.

You can save some big money if you can find a CK25 or CK30 that was delivered to the dealer last year. Remember the free loader offer is scheduled to end the 28th, and has a HUGE impact on the pricing. I happen to know where some of these are in Arkansas ;-).
I plan to stock only the 27 and 35 after the old inventory is gone,so I suspect we will here something at the meeting next week about the CK30s future.

I was thinking their 25 and 30 hp was there biggest sellers? Must not be,or they are just trying to get both with the 27.
So they will have 20-27 and 35? And somebody said there was a 1,000 dollar difference between same sized 35,[same phisical size as 27].Sounds like they might not be selling to many 27's...unless they change the 35?

I'm just guessing but I predict that the CK27 engine meets new EPA specs and the CK25 engine doesn't. No guess on the CK30 but again predict CK35 does. All 4 engines are rated at 2600 RPM and engine displacement increases as HP increases.

That may be it. And all four have different displacement,no wonder they need to narrow it down.

We have just about settled on the ck35. We still have a couple weeks for the free loader program. Getting anxious.
