Which one do you like better? I don't really think you could go wrong with either. Tractors for most of us are such long term purchases, I be inclined to go for the new one. FWIW

Did you get a price on a new CK30 that will give you more HP at the PTO. I own one and love it. I would buy new for the money. No to mention Kioti's are built like tanks.

Crap.

I was set on the 3130, so I drove to the dealer to give it a final look, and talk to him about a BB for it. Was ready to close the deal.
He had the price wrong, it was $17,500. Apparently he had it confused with another one on the lot. So it's out for sure.

I don't know, I need to digest this.

OK, made a friggin decision finally /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

It's a new /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gifCK25HST with FEL, Kioti 20 series 60" box blade, radiator hose heater, loaded AG tires, delivered from NH(2 hours away) so I don't have to pay Vermont 7% tax. It will be here Saturday the 21st(he does'nt have the AG's in stock).

The final price is $15,200. Much more than I wanted to spend(I started this mission convinced I was going to go Chinese for $9K).

Thanks to everyone for their advice. Wish me luck, and I hope it's enough power, but the CK30 was $1400 more for just 5 hp, and I couldn't justify it.
