Hey yall! Im brand new to the forum but Ive been browsing a lot and doing my research into Kioti. My wife (aka the Bosslady) is finally allowing me to make the jump and hopefully Ill be signing paperwork this weekend! Ive got 23 acres. I currently have a 60 Gravely Zeroturn that I manage 7 acres with and its been about 3-4 years since the other 16 acres has been cut. My field is standing around 3 feet high but there are some heavy spots where its 4-6 feet. Ive spoken with the dealer and told him I wanted the CK3510 with the gearbox. I dont want to deal with the hydrostatic transmission and possible problems of it. I grew up on my dads old Ford tractor and just love the reliability of a good old fashion gearbox transmission. The dealer quoted me $17,500 OTD on the base CK3510 but also quoted me $18,500 on a CK3510 with the Shuttle Shift. Im not too familiar with the shuttle shift. Ive looked at YouTube videos to see how it works and it seems pretty straight forward but I wanted some feedback on reliability and maintenance on the shuttle shift. Also Im wanting to get a bushhog. The dealer sells Rhino bushhogs. I wasnt familiar with Rhino so I did some research on them and they seem to be pretty reputable. My dilemma is between the Rhino TW16 or TW25. I think a TW16 would work but I do worry a little bit about getting into the heavier brush with only a 1 cutting capacity. So I was also thinking about going to the heavier duty TW25 but I would be sacrificing a foot of cutting width. Any and all feedback is appreciated and I look forward to talking with yall!
