mx4700 vs the kioti dk45se or ds4510hs

STROKETHIS · Jan 16, 2011

I'm going back and forth on these models. Specs wise there real close the kiotis ave a few more bells and whistles but thats not what i'm worried about in a tractor. Guess what i'm looking for is sell me on either brand help me make a consertive desion.

i know the kubota is easy to operate an its comfy to drive.you can reach everything with ease.bottomline its your choice as to what tractor you get.have you test drove the tractors.

Between the two brands, I don't think you will regret your decision either way you go.

I have never looked much at the Kioti lineup due to the lack of good dealers in my area.

i haven't drove any of the machines but i have looked at all of them in person. At first i was looking at the l4400 but the mx4700 seems like alot more tractor for bout the same price. The kiotis specs rate it as a higher capactiy tractor but in person the mx4700 just seems like it should be able to do more. I'm starting to think these manufactors numbers on all makes are just that a number that dosen't weigh much on real world function.

now you could take another step up to the MX5100 HST for $19,000 or $20,000.

that must be without fel. That price still seems cheap. Whats the price i should be looking at for the mx4700 gear shift with fel. I'm wantin to stay n/a on the motor. The 5100 has a turbo. Also i'm not a fan of a hst. Its nice and all but when i buy a tractor its a lifetime purchase or at least i go into it looking at it that way. I can split a tractor and change a clutch in my shop at home. I don't know the first thing about a hst trans and it would have to go to the big buck dealer once warr. ran out. Thats another thing on the kubota vs kioti. Kioti has 4 years no hour limit warr.

None of the specs or warranties matter that much if you can't stand the fit and feel of the tractor. Drive them and see if one stands out to you, then see which dealer wants your business the most and which tractor is the best value if you like them equally.

I know you don't want a turbo, but the upgraded 3PH on the 5100 would be worth the price to me. The MX4700's 3PH looks really cheap, at least to me, compared with the 5100.

lets see i have the MX5100 HST w/FEL 4x4.an i got it for $24,000 cash out the door.so you should get the MX4700 for $22000 more or less w/fel.

Bigbull is right on. I purchased a MX4700 with FEL and loaded rear last July for 22K.

Is that a cash price. I haven't haggle with my dealer but i did get a over the phone quate from them for 22700 for a l4400 gear with fel. Sounds like they may be a lil high. I'm kinda of afraid to ask what there price is on a mx4700. Does the price on the l4400 sound rite.
