Just eyeballing really quickly the RK online I think that would be the way I would lean. Someone correct me if I am wrong here but it seems the RK37 can be had for the same money as the econo JD or the low hp kubota.

I would go to every brand within an hour or two of you. Drive each one and see which one fits you best. Try LS, Massey, Kioti, RK etc. you would be surprised in the prices of different brands.
Comfort and dealer can make a big difference. My dad has a Montana, but it痴 too cramped for me. I needed a bigger operator platform.
Good luck

Online and RK 37 starts at 26,000 with just the FEL the mahindra ck35 about the same. my quote for the kubota was 22000 with bush hog and liquid filled tires. Plus zero percent
My wife did not want to go over 20. It is hard to get her to go for this. It is only a weekend summer home, but we want to do so much with it and have other stuff to do plus we still have a house payment where we live.
That’s why it is so hard
Been looking for a few month, need it by the time spring rolls, we had to put in a septic and have a lot of yard clearing to do to plant grass. So my time is getting limited.
Again, I would not even think of 24is HP in any of the other brands. Only reason I even consider the kubota right now is because of the weight and zero percent.

I am certain that the RK37H that I looked at online today was 21,999 with loader included. Now this could be my computer sending me to an old page as I did notice I got bounced around a bit when I got into the loader specs. Just a bit curious now if the web site needs updated.
Just went back and verified it was listed at 21,999 for the RK37H
The RK37HC with quick attach loader was listed at 26,499 this is a cab tractor.
I also see a tab to apply for zero percent financing for 84 months on the website.

The E model in JD is their basic model and the R model is the more deluxe. Kubota and JD are both great, very well established. They are also the only dealers near me. I own a JD now and owned a Kubota in the past. One thing to keep in mind JD recommends a lot of ballast. For my JD 2025r, smaller than you are looking at, they recommend filled tires AND about 800 pounds of rear ballast when using the FEL. This adds about a 1000 pounds to my tractor.
Price just confirmed at rural king by a friend who was at one of the PA stores today.
The open station 37 is priced at 21,999 as of today.
Was the price you were quoted for a cab tractor?
Just watched a recent video on the RK
That price includes loaded tires, rear remote, quick attach loader and bucket, 8 year warrantee.
Looking at the specs, the options and price even if it was a stretch I would be going this way if my 3 choices were JD, Kubota or RK.
If I wasn’t willing to stretch the money I would go smaller like the RK24 and deal with too small till the other things in life settled and then trade it in on what ever was the best deal at that time.
