Who's lifted the biggest load? :) KL-401 or other?

I didn't realize the KL351 was only rated at 1500 LBS. I wish my L39 had the bigger front axle of the L45.

Yeah. When I bought my first tractor- DK-35, I thought it would do anything I needed it to. Soon I found out that for my purposes the loader was inadequate, and I decided to trade it for a Dk-40 for extra loader capacity. WOW! Now I'm cranking and have no complaints; except I could also use a skidsteer and a mini-ex, as well as a few other 'specialty' tools- like one of those Veermeer skidsteers you can stand upright on and use with a grapple or other front attachments:thumbsup:
Seriously, though the DK-40 is awesome power to wt., and size, and lift capacity, etc.

Good thread!

No pictures, but I've moved numerous large trees, cars at scrap yard and one was still operational, but the owner wouldn't move it, so I did.

Probably my heaviest was moving concrete divider slaps like on highway construction zones!! Those are heavy!!

Kioti could hurt Kubota sales if they had a kicker Bachoe.

The real difference between an Kioti ant the much more expensive Kubota L39/L45 is the hoe.

No other company has a machine that size with a hoe that can compare other than the even more pricey JD 110

As far as speed, no TLB can compete against an excavator, but as a Swiss army knife, one machine to do all, a good TLB can't be beat.

The first TLB I bought was the old Kioti LK3054, but at same time I bought more property, I made the decision I needed a larger machine, so the LK3054 so it never left the dealers lot.

I値l give a plug for Upper Valley Tractor! They could have stiffed me.

The L39 is worth another $15K however.

Kioti needs to look at the business case of using their DK frame and offer a real updated TLB as a commercial machine.

Kioti needs also to improve their paint and quality of plastics, especially UV resistance.

Kioti could even take one of their larger machines and add a 12 hoe to go against the M59, but I think the real market would be a good 10-10-5 hoe on a HD compact tractor.

Kioti is giving Kubota a run for the money on the utility vehicles.

This thread isn't about comparing Kubota to Kioti, or the companies paint/UV protectors, frame design or utility vehicles, etc.
Just because Kubota has an offering that they price for $15K more than a Kioti, is irrelevant here. The topic is, as stated above in the title section. If you want to compare brands find a thread that is specific to that topic- of which there are dozens to be found.
