Mavrik02,
If you don't mind me asking who is your dealer?
I am a Kioti dealer myself and I can help your dealer get the tractor he needs right now.
If you have a interest and your dealer wants he can call me and I will take care of him and you.
If he is not willing to do something for you maybe we can strike a deal.
Thank for you time, RICK WALLACE
WALLACE TRACTOR AND EQUIPMENT
(570)689-7494
Please feel free to call we are here 7 days a week!

Good question but keep in mind that buying a machine is based on when the buyer is ready, not availability so dealers are not completely off the hook! Tractors and the large parts (bh subframes ect) are called "whole goods" and get shiped in a different manner than an individual part. This stuff comes by truck and many times in 45 day intervals so if something like a machine or a loader is ordered because of it's availability waiting for it is part of the game........unfortunately. Kioti is not alone in this. Most manufacturers are up against this

Rick,

With me traveling all of next week the end of the month will be here before I know it. Had we been able to do something a week or so ago I may have jumped all over it. I do appreciate the offer and if I run into any unexpected delays I will surely give you a call.

Thanks for trying to help out!

Fred

Just a quick update on my now seriously depressing story. My dealer called Kioti and the two CK30 HST tractors he was supposed to get this week are just leaving Korea and will be another 3-4 weeks. I have no reason to doubt his explanation to me but I can't wait another 4-5 weeks for my tractor. I've got to find one for a reasonable price from someone else or start looking at the Kubota machines again and try to find the best price I can.

Waiting this long for a tractor is starting to turn my attitude about the whole thing sour.

Just got the fax today, August was a record setting month for shipments of tractors to dealers.... this explains alot of the shortage... we only have 1 CK30HST left...
