Kubota B 2650 or Kioti CK 27

Will do

Well I'm here right now and I just took it for a spin it has the factory On it it is a B 2650 HS DC it is much quieter inside the cab than my factory Is but then again the tractor itself is much quieter than mine also. The loudest thing inside is the hydrostatic wine that I hear not sure if that would go away once it's warmer but it was fairly loud. It is much smaller than my tractor which also gives it a tiger turning radius I would compare it to the CK 20 in size. I'll repost some more information later with some pics

It seems like a very nice tractor he quoted me 25,445 for tractor loader and factory cab. 0% for 60 months financing he is located in Valporaiso Indiana. The only things I did not like are that it does seem a little small but not bad and that there are no windows on the cab it is almost all glass nothing that you can open other than the back panel will tilt open. And I kept hitting my head on the mirror I think almost anyone would also do the same it is very low when you come out of the door. I don't think I would be disappointed with this tractor other than the fact that it is smaller and lighter and I think it's probably about 5000 more than a CK 27 with the cab and loader. But if quiet is what you're looking for this is very quiet inside and out. He did say the add-on cabs are not as quiet but this tractor runs much wider than my bobcat which is the same motor and exhaust as your CK 27. If you are planning on buying one here I'm sure this guy would be nice to deal with I've attached his phone number and information for you.

That's crazy pricing ... You can get an LS XR3037 HST cab (factory with heat & AC) with loader for around $26,500 ... Much much stronger tractor with lots of features and 37 HP . $25k for a B series sized tractor is absurd, regardless of the brand name.

Thank you for the information and the pictures. I appreciate that but I would not be able to buy that from that dealer. I'm in Nova Scotia Canada and by the time I paid the difference in the dollar and the duty plus taxes it would be crazy expensive. Tractors are much cheaper in the U.S. than they are here. I was quoted thirty six thousand, three hundred and five dollars here for that same tractor that you have pictured here with a 60 inch blower and it's very expensive as you can see here.

You would have to live here and buy a tractor to see crazy pricing nods. Look at my last post to see what I was quoted here in Canada for that same machine only with a blower added.

Came home last night after driving the Kabota took my bobcat out for a spin the Kabota feels more refined but I still like my bobcat a lot better

The only thing that keeps bothering me is how much quieter the Kubota was than the bobcat. I mean yeah it was quieter in the cab but even the motor alone was so much quieter and the horsepower is a round the same.

I've also noticed that the Kubota's run quieter. I know some are 3 vs. 4 cylinders, and that makes a difference. But, I don't see the big deal though. All of them are too loud anyway.

The B-series factory cab is very much the same in dimensions and comfort features as it has been in the other B-series tractors with factory cabs over the past ten years or so that they have been building them.
A quiet engine is one that is not fighting itself to run. Normally it leads to longer life of the engines as well as better hearing for the operators. There is a lot that goes into engines designs as far as the quality of metal used and the designs. We have many Kubota engines with higher (5000plus) hours on them working both on lawn mowers as well as tractors of all sizes. Many makes never make it that far for there owners and rule of thumb only last 3,000 to 5,000 hours.
We see some manufactures are still using older cruder cast iron at a far reduced cost of build and of coarse sacrificing longer life.
