Suggestions of what size and model for a Kioti tractor

[mesupra]

I also had a ford 1720 tlb with the woods 7.5 hoe, I know have a bobcat 335 (kioti DK35) rebadged with a bobcat 8 hoe. The ford was a very reliable simple machine, over 5000 hrs on the working clock and still ran like new. The bobcat has 290 hrs and is a Cadillac in comparission. The hoe has a little more reach and lots more power, it's about as smooth as them come. I would look around to see if you can get a close out deal on a new bobcat, there's a dealer in northern maine with a new bobcat ct 440 with a cab loader and blower for 28000. The DK 40 has great specs I just can see paying for new when there are so many good used ones out there my 335 sst with 290hrs tlb rake and forks for 18k

Hey Mesupra, there is a dealer here in Northern Maine with that deal. The only problem with that deal is the dealers customer service. That is one of the main reasons why the tractor is still sitting there and has been for the past year or so. I personally went to entertain the thought of purchasing a ct440 from them and I loved the tractor and all, but the dealer is a different story. FYI

" there is a dealer here in Northern Maine with that deal" thats what I said.

I understand that. All I'm trying to say is that the dealer service is terrible.

I understand staying away from dealers with bad service, however with the resources avaible on the internet I don't see the need of purchasing something for the service or warranty. Not that I want to give any buisness to a individual that does not value his customers. I think the idea of savings thousands of dollars would help me look the other way. Which Kioti model does the CT440 copy, I know mine is the equivalent of a DK35.
