kubota vs. kioti

[k0ua]

Kioti is a fine tractor a 200hrs. After 5 years, then you will see why people buy John Deere, Kubota, CNH/Ls. They hold up. IF well maintained they will still run like new. A kioti no matter how well maintained and taken care of will start to fall apart after a few hundred hours.

Well I be. I guess My 233 hour Dk, it about to fall apart in the middle huh?.. Skating on thin ice and all? I used it all day today..but maybe I need to make it last what little life it has left?..I laugh in your general direction.

Just bend over, open your wallet, and let them take what they want, they count on that :thumbsup:

I'd be willing to bet your machine came with a "Tool Holder"...in the form of a seatbelt....

Good one!:thumbsup:

Crap, mine is over half wore out at 119hrs...You are just screwed, you are on borrowed time my friend.:laughing:

Nor does it involve work. Accomplishing work is what we are talking about in the thread - starting with debunking your claim that a generic hi HP engine would not accomplish the work of a lower HP engine having hi torque output. Horsepower requires force and movement. It does not require torque. Torque is a construct of force, a lever, and a pivot. HP defines force and rate of movement.

This is completely wrong, but pretty funny.

So, "Horsepower requires force and movement" is your position? Okay, let's go with that. Evidently you don't realize that the "force" you mention in the horsepower formula IS torque.

The definition of horsepower is torque multiplied by RPM, divided by the constant of 5252. If there is zero torque, there is zero horsepower. Horsepower doesn't define anything else in the equation, it is defined by the variables of torque and rpm.

For folks that want to understand the actual math/physics involved, this is a pretty good summary with actual formulas, not inaccurate theories.

Power and Torque: Understanding the Relationship Between the Two, by EPI Inc.

Wrong again. Torque does no work. HP gives you a handle on the combinations of force and speed you can achieve. The whole story in one value.
...I took a look at your link. I didnt need it since I know that stuff. "Actual formulas" are not necessary if you understand Energy, Power, and Time and know the E/T equivalent - formulas can make you think you understand cuz you can plug into and get the answer without the proper grounding in concepts. Looks like they were going thru the pertinent points tho. If you have read it, you have not understood it. ... You really need to go talk to a horse.

So DK35vince with his 13 years and 1800+ hours is like "dead man walking"?

That things gotta be like the Beverly Hillbilly's ride if you go by the Toolbox's formula.

I am thinking my DK35se is still going to be running when I am pushing up daises. How ever long that is going to be. You know he didn't say, but I bet he thinks Kubota's are a POS also. I swear some of these JD guys have a "thing" going on.

I have noticed that....wierd.... and stupid:thumbsup:

Its still working like new.
If my John Deere was better, someone would need to point out to me where it was a better built machine because I don't see it.

Maybe he just said that to see if he could get a "rise" out of us Kioti owners.. Yeah, that's the ticket.
