what are the options for subcompacts?

megotatractor · Feb 21, 2004

Ok, there's Kubota BX's the Massey/Agco GC20, Kioti, JD, ... who else makes subcompacts? I'm looking for something sturdy that will still fit in my garage while wearing a snow cab and not cost an arm and a leg, 3pt hitch, pto, hydro or shuttle shift, tough enough to do FEL work, ideally with 4wd... anyone? some makes and then I'll find out what's available in my area- SE Minnesota /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

I beleive New Holland just came out with a sub-compact line also. Other than that it looks like you got them all.

SE Minnesota huh? Rochester here, you?

I discovered one more; Simplicity Lagacy which appears identical to the Massey Gc but more horseys

...and not cost an arm and a leg... 

The choices are the easy part. THAT is the hard part... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif

Let us know your solution to that one... /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

The smallest tractor Kioti makes is the CK20. It is a compact, not a subcompact,
with a full fledged Category I, 3 point hitch.

Does Cub Cadet also make a sub?

Mahindra makes the 2015 Mitsubishi built compact. 20HP, 4x4, standard with R4's, HST, etc. Weighs about 2500# with loader. It's about the size of the CK20 Kioti.

Never has there been a time with so many quality small tractor offerings.

Dave,

You can say that again, /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif the market must be growing or everyone wouldn't be trying to get a piece /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif
