Pricing for 2010 CT235

[JohnfromPA]

I see you're now looking at the Bobcats. Same tractor, just a different color. :thumbsup: That's about $900 more than I paid for my CK30hst with fel almost five years ago but this is for the 35hp. If I could have gotten a 35hp when I bought mine, I would have spent the extra. The price seems pretty good and remember the prices are different for different regions. At least that's how it works with Kioti. Most of the time 30hp works good but a little extra is always nice. If you're in this for the long haul, it's not that much per year and you can run bigger pto attachments. The aux rear remotes are nice. They can be used for a bh, top and tilt cylinders, log splitter, or anything else that needs hydraulic power. I ended up installing them myself. Good luck in your quest.

Doing alot of looking. The Bobcat dealer is extremely close by, which is a big plus. Also may take a look at Massey and Mahindra... Deere and Kubota are pretty much out. Kioti pretty much is too because Bobcat smoked their price, largely due to the Kioti dealer only giving $1200 off for the free loader promotion. The Bobcat dealer's price on a shiny, brand new, plastic-wrapped 2010 CT235 is less than Kioti dealer's price for a 2008 CK30 that has been on their lot for almost 2 years.

The Mahindra 3316 is going to be the best match to the CT235. I have a 3215HST. It is a good tractor, but not sure if I would get it again or just go with a CT235 with the deluxe package. I had looked hard at a Kioti CK35, but decided to go with the Mahindra.

If you are going to do much grading with your tractor, get both of the rear remotes, you will need them for the "top n Tilt" that you should get. "TnT" is the only way to go if you are doing any grading at all. I had to add after market valves for my "TnT", Mahindra only offers 1 rear remote on the 15-16 series tractors.

has anyone ever had rear aux added to your tractor, and if you did, how much did it cost?

Dealer told me $1000 each on the CT230 i looked at the other day. Im now lookin at a CT335 maybe. Im just not sure which one is gonna suite my needs better. I had a Yanmar 155d before but wanted to go for aroun 30hp for our next. But im liking the size of the CT335 now over the CT230.

That seems very high. I added both to my Kioti CK30hst about three years ago. The cost for the kits was @$275 for the first one and @$350 for the second one. I did the install myself which took about 4 hours. I think I could do it faster now. It wasn't hard to do and the units came with instructions. Being that both the Bobcat and Kioti are copies, for the most part, you might be able to get the units from one of the Kioti dealers, install yourself, and save a bunch.

Rear remotes run around $350 installed each and front remote is $1100 installed in my area.

Sorry that was my mistake, it was $1000 for both lol. I just looked at the quote.
