Comparison TYM vs KIOTI (the eternal question)

[MaDiNfO]

Going to try a second hand KIOTI CK3510, later this week, or the next, it have 120 hours.

i still like the independent pto and shuttle from the tym.....

lets see

The Mahindra is Made by TYM(at least the ones I looked at recently), they just use their own engine. The TYM offered more standard options and are less expensive to purchase.
I own Kubota and TYM, both have things I dislike. When I was looking for a bigger tractor, the TYM had much more to offer as standard options than Kubota and almost 10 grand cheaper. So far the TYM has been a great tractor with no issues, the BX24 is a little mule, it has done everything I've asked of it. So is Korean on par with Japanese I'd have to say yes.

Most smaller Mahindra tractors are made by Mitsubishi. Bigger tractors are made by Mahindra. TYM built some tractors for Mahindra, like the 10 series. My Mahindra 4110 was built by TYM, and has a Daedong engine (aka Kioti).

Before committing to purchase a TYM or Kioti tractor, suggest you make up a spreadsheet using information from the specification sheet for each tractor - refer attached example for TYM, Kioti and Kubota.
This provides a quick overview of each of the tractors and assists with making the right decision. First issue is to determine if tractor size / capacity is "fit for purpose" and then second issue is to negotiate "best price".
Much easier to negotiate "best price" when you can rattle off the positives / negatives of a tractor to each salesman. Takes all the bluff out of the discussions.

i think i am going to a Goldoni Ronin 50
Italian made.
Its the same price as the KIOTI CK4010 (500 euros difference).

It have a 2199cc engine. everything is mechanical, no electronics, no dpf.

independent pto, the only thing that i don't like is the 3 point itch control, it is not a position control but a valve control.

It as depth control, 3th point hydraulic, front hydraulic ports for loader.

Ronin 5 | Goldoni

The rear 3 pt is sort of wimpy for a 50 hp tractor

The rear 3 pt is sort of wimpy for a 50 hp tractor

If I looked at it correctly that's almost 4,000lbs. Pretty much towards the top end of that class tractor.

OP, looks interesting, never heard of them.

 

[AWSubie]

My eyes were seeing kg but my mind was reading lbs!
Definitely a strong 3 pt.

 

[MaDiNfO]

Still w8 for it probably it will be this week.

asked a few extras, position control and draft control, front hydraulics and hydraulic 3 point.

BMan2005, yes its 3968 of your lbs.

AWSubie, yeah I figured that's why you said that. I was beginning to think my new tractor was a wuss trailing behind that one in lift capacity. Lol

OP, I looked that tractor up and didn't even see any for sake in the states. But I did see it's been around along time, the brand. Good luck with it and post pictures after getting it.
