This is a open wake up call to Kioti,s upper brass!! Customers are still waiting for your new UTV,s to be delivered to dealers show rooms.WAKE UP KIOTI !!! Please give us a sliver of hope you are really going to sell these units,coobie.

From what I've seen in the trade press, Jan. is supposed to be the time frame. Prices I've seen in these same venues are not as inspiring as I had hoped.

With all the delays I'm kinda scared of why. Are there problems? I think I'll stay away until there is a track record (and plus I won't have the $ anyhow but even if I did I'd be cautious of the lemon year).

They lost my (potential) sale. I waited and waited and then bought a Polaris Ranger. I am happy with my DK 35 and would have considered the Kioti UTV but was not prepared to wait for "later" to get one. I use mine for work and as most already know, work won't wait.

Unless they can compete by substantially underpricing the competition, they are likely to end up another "also-ran". Being the first is an advantage. Being the best is an advantage. Being the least expensive is an advantage. If you aren't one of these (or close to the top in more than one), there might be a flaw in your marketing plan.

Rick,

Have you sold a UTV with a plow before?(Customer feedback is why I asked, on how it performs...) I love those Blizzard plows, and wondered how that UTV handles it? What size plow is that?


:)

The one I have is NOT for sale!!
I did get to plow with it yesterday...Wow was it fun and the HUV handles it with ease..
Believe it or not I bought this one to try and break it..
I have to find the weak points that way I have inventory when someone rips one a part:eek:
The plow I have mounted on this UTV is a 720 7'2"
They also make a 680 6'8"
I have not hung any of the Blizzards on any customer, we just got into the plow business this year.
