Ok, thanks everyone.
On another note, this dealer proceeded to tell me about a visit he made to the Kioti manufacturing plant (overseas), and this plant sells line time to other tractor builders, no to mention names but they are red, orange and green. He explained the difference in the cast alloy used by different brands, and they tell this Kioti plant just what they want. And he went on and on.
Is this guy full of it or do any of you know about this?????

I think you'll need to mention names for us to confirm or deny. But I can tell you the orange is not Kubota and the green is not Deere. Kubota makes all their own stuff. Deere has machines made by other manufacturers (Yanmar is one) but not Kioti as far as I know.

I can show you a web site that says that Daedong makes one line of the Deere product for sale in Asia.

Well, that is a bit far out of my neighborhood, so I'll take your word for it!

I'll bite: I went to the link, clicked "English" and did not find any mention of Deere... ?? Is knowledge of Korean required here?

Yes it is interesting that when you ask for the english site, all references to the Deere are missing. Here is another interesting page.

Here is another John Deere made by Daedong only for sale in Korea. It IS a John Deere, but it is made by Daedong, the parent company of Kioti

Any who the DK-40 is one beast of a machine. Are you happy with paying that much or is that a deal in your area. Once you buy it do NOT look for other sales!!! Be happy in your deal and do not tempt fate.
