Looking at new tractors need feed back

[grm61]

So far I have looked at the Kioti and Mahindra
I am looking at 40 hp tractors equiped with R4s, Fel, toothbar, loaded tires, must have quick attach bucket, and a sub frame mount to accomidate my b80x backhoe that I will not trade!
So far pro's and con's I have found
DK40 Pro's like the lift capacity, tractor is a 4 cylinder, seeems to handle ok, the capabilty to move the 3 point from the back of the tractor when hooking up equipment.
Cons, Seat belt seems close as I am a big guy.
Quote 22,500 for the base tractor.

4035 Platform seems to be little more open. handles well, set up very similar to my TC40. Really like the power shuttle shift.
Con's 3 cylinder engine, much louder than the 4 cylinder
Quote 24,500 for the base tractor.

Have to agree with you the motor on the Mahindra, it sounds a little crude, I was first looking at the Mahindra 4035. The racket the motor made is what got me looking elsewere.
