Dealer Kioti dealer in up-state New York

[Coyote machine]

Mary and Randy are consistent. I bought my ck20 from them for about $17000 with fel, york rake, rear blade, rear mower and dump box (no BH). The BH is a a big extra cost item. I'm guessing at least $2500 or way more. I checked the dealer in Cicero, ny. He was slightly less but he never heard of using rimguard in the tires and told me that tranporting of tractor for service would be $100 extra for each service. Randy will pick up and deliver for my services for almost nothing. Mary & Randy threw in several little extras at no charge and were totally up front and honest in my deal and stayed flexible as I changed my mind several times on my extra implements. I've called several times with questions and they have always given me time freely with good advice. (Saved me $$ in the possess.) The whole deal was a great experience and I felt they were giving me their best deal right at the beginning. FYI: shipping tractors into NYS from NC costs a lot more than other states as good ole NYS has some crazy high fees on trucking into NYS. Lots of southern truckers won't touch a load bound for NYS cause they refuse to pay the riduculous NYS fees, thus fewer "I'll go to NYS" truckers and higher shipping costs. I think the price is fair. Personally I picked Ranmar as a dealership (They have a good rep. with other dealers like White Tractors.) as much as the CK as the product. Just my two cents. Good luck in your shopping. Burt
PS I know Redfield black flies are as bad as Altmar black flies. How's the fishing at the upper reservoir?

FWIW,a decent Kioti or Woods backhoe could be as high as 5-$7,000 depending on the model and bucket.

Burnercan, another dealer in CNY is Kleis Equipment on Rt49, Constantia. I did not buy my CK30 there but they helped me out with some needed additions this Spring. Including adding a Woods BH which they don't sell, but worked through the hoops to get me what I wanted. Because it was "pricey" to add a Woods BH to my tractor for various reasons, they went out on a limb in my book on a very sweet offer for a new CK30 TLB. Don't know if they're still aggressive on sales, but it may be worth a call. Mike Murphy is the gent to talk to. And they do know what Rimguard is (sign in showroom and tank out back). They are a relatively new establishment, but seem to be headed in the right direction.

Nothing bad to say about Ranmar though as I've not dealt with them. So if you're happy with them and what they can offer after the sale, go for it. Final selling price is not everything in my book. If dealerships get the feeling you are just shopping for the lowest price point they may not be as open. But having said that, if they get the feeling that they are investing in a long term customer...... You may not always get the lowest price, but maybe they throw in some goodies in the sale. Just a thought.

Interesting info on Gary's small engine in Cicero.......didn't know he carried Kioti. Thought he was a Mahindra est. I dealt with him years ago on chainsaws and other small engine stuff. Good guy personally from my experience, but wasn't a large equipment guy then.

Good luck with your tractor shopping.

What? Say more about 'early order'?

Many of the short lines offer big discounts on early orders (like fall time for the next year) to get the dealers to order ahead of time. The in season orders normally don't offer any additional discounts.

There is also free freight for the right size orders.
