How happy are you?

I was just down at a Jordan tractor in post falls idaho to get a few small parts. Their lot was pretty well filled with Tom and kioti tractors. Lots of cab units also.

Howdy neighbor, I’m from Deer Park, WA!

I have a 2016 3520h and it has been a dream machine.

Hi, on that little rubber/plastic cup around the fuel filler neck, mine has a hole and a drain tube going down towards the ground. Sure that yours isn't filled with debris and that is why rain water is collecting in it?

Yep ! Just got finished eating over two years of crow, went out cleaned like crazy found the tight packed tube end. Got a weed eater string poked twisted for five minutes finally got through, been that way from dealership new. Never would have taken another look if you hadn't stated yours had a drain, Thanks !

I just took delivery of my DK4510MS a month ago to replace the MF1250 that i bought 27 years ago. I have been very pleased with the tractor during the 27 hours I have run it. I use a tractor to mow ~25 acres of pasture, clear trails, drill fence post holes and do driveway maintenance. About 90% is spent mowing on somewhat hilly terrain so I went with the manual shuttle. This leaves me with 42 PTO HP. To take advantage of the increased HP I bought a Land Pride RCD1884 84" dual spindle rotary cutter which would be considered a light duty brush hog, but I use it more as a heavier duty finish mower. I had read that dual spindle allows you to use a wider cutter with less HP but had my fingers crossed nonetheless. The DK4510 cut through the thick 36" high grass like it was nothing, even in 3rd gear. Much quicker than the 34 HP (27 pto hp) Massey pulling an SQ60. It is taking less than half the time and way less than half the fuel to mow my field. I had been looking at Kubota 4701 and Massey 1840 and 2850 tractors but the 10k price difference helped with the decision. This forum was an excellent resource for doing the research as well. I am learning a lot just from browsing the posts. A great group of people.

Like someone else said, Kioti makes the new Bobcats. I have a ct4045 bobcat and love it so far. Daedong in Korea makes the engines and has been making them for a long time.

Many little things to like and a couple little things to not like. But overall very happy with it.

Hello from Glennville, GA. I purchased a 2020 Kioti CK2610 mid last year. I moved 5 tandem axle dirt loads with it last year. I have only used it a few times until a few months ago. I had been using the tractor to unload used railroad ties 3 times a week. I have been impressed with how it handles the load of the grapple attachment and ties. Buckle up or get bucked off. Overall, I have been impressed with the lift capability and handling. Access to both sides of the tractor is great benefit in thick woods. I’ll be using it to clear property boundaries and gun range lanes for my pistol and rifle range. I’ll also use it to build the 40 foot range backstop with railroad ties.

Sweet, the world would be dull without tractors. You must be moving pretty fast to be rocking and rolling like that. I use my seat belt on steep slopes for sure.

Yes Sir, it took me 3 hours at first. I now have it down to one to unload. I love the grapple with 3rd function. I can grab each tie with the claw ends and place it exactly where I need it.
