CT230 delivery times

[archerm3]

Went to the dealer last night and drove through the parking lot. I see my loader and belly mower sitting on a crate. All I need now is something to put them on!

Huzzah! My tractor is in town, waiting on installing all the goodies!

CT235 was delivered on Aug. 19, just like the dealer said. Nice machine, can't wait to get using it. Landpride 72" finish mower, KK 5' tiller, BB2065, and away we go. Glad I went with the CT235 over the 2520, saved a lot of $$$.

Hey Toad, how's the 235 handle that tiller? I'm hoping to have the same stuff as you but with a 230. I'm a little concerned about a 5' tiller but would be nice to cover the tracks.

I don't know about the $1800 but I think the bump in power would be very nice. I have a 225 and find it almost underpowered when running a Bush Hog on hills. The 335 has 7 more hp.

Don't know what all you are going to be doing with your tractor, and $1800 is a lot of $$$$, but after you do 2 or 3 things and wished that you had had a little more power, you will be wishing that you had gone for the offer. Sounds like a lot of money, but in tractorland, HP ain't cheep.
If it were me , I would go for the offer while it is still there, plus you will have your tractor sooner.

I'll sell you my CT230 for $500 less than your dealer quoted! And I have it in stock!

Are you unhappy with your machine?

Opportunity knocks! I'm happy with the CT230 but would like the greater HP and if I had to do over again I would get the CT235 or greater. I almost purchased the CT225 (my original choice) but I was given a VERY good deal that I couldn't pass up on the CT230 because he had that in stock. I also received another VERY good deal from another dealer on the CT235 because that's what he had in stock but the dealer was ~150miles away. That was more than the CT230 but only by a few hundred bucks. The main issue with the Bobcats is that they are big and heavy and the extra HP would be better for the machine's size. Again, that's my opinion but I'm still very happy with the CT230. Now, if I stuck with my original plan on the CT225 I'm not sure I would be as happy.
