Hi guys, I'm looking at a DK40SE with a loader, 4x4, HST. I received a quote fro $24,900 (before tax), I was expecting something around $20k. Maybe I was overly optimistic? Does the $24,900 seem ridiculously high?

I bought a dk40se hst last June form Hoover Tractor in pa and spent $ 18,750 for Tractor and Loader, $450 for forks. For $ 300 more He would have included first service.

Did that include the "self leveling" loader ?

The KL401 is not self leveling.

Regarding price, there have been price increases since I bought mine but I would still expect to pay less than $20K for tractor and loader.

Right, the 1590 and 1595 seem to be, but the O/P didn't specify which loader was in the quote.
Oddly enough the Kioti web site doesn't pop up the self leveling loaders - 1/2 hour ago.

Thanks guys, so the $24,490 is very high. If they are firm on that price, I could get a Kubota 4240 with loader for something comparable. Maybe they will move on that number.

Under 20K for that tractor/loader would be a give away price now, even on an 08 leftover. Last june we had a free loader offer from KIOTI that allowed this model to sell in the high teens at some dealers. Also it makes a big difference if the $24,995 is a cash price or if low rate financing is entering into the picture. This tractor also went up again for teh 2010 fiscal year stared 10-1. LIst on this tractor loader is now well over 27,000. Dealers have to pay for the current 0% 60 months promotion and any low rate program takes the place of the dealer settlement allowance (often called a rebate). Hope this helps, hate for you to settle for a lesser tractor for the same money because you think the dealer is not being fair ;-).

I compared the DK40se to the L4240 when I bought mine and at that time there was about six thousand $ difference. Hard to imagine they are close to the same price.

Yes, the $24,990 was a cash price, I don't need financing. They did offer to sell me the tractor at an out of state location so I wouldn't have to pay sales tax, but that doesn't seem right to me.

Check with Wallace. He's a Kioti dealer in PA and is very active on this forum. I think he'll beat that price by a lot!!

Hi JMAINE,
The customer who purchased from Hoover last year may have apid that amount, but remember that kioti had a FREE loader promotion last year.
The full price of less than $19K for current model year loader and backhoe without the FREE loader rebate is impossible. There would have to be something else affecting that price.
Believe me.

KiotiDave is probably 100% correct that there is no way to buy that tractor now for 19k but 24,900 is still too high. That would probably be a more reasonable price for the DK45SE HST with FEL.

I don't think he was pricing a backhoe with the package, just a fel.

He has the wrong loader (KL401) listed in the ad but the correct one (KL351) in the photos. Still, a pretty good deal.

I was just quoted $28.5K (cash price) for a DK40SE with cab, FEL, shredder and box blade.

The DK35SE is about $2k cheaper.

AustinTX In the summer of 2008 I was quoted 2K difference between a CK30 HST and CK35 HST. So it seems that's what 5 HP is worth in the same tractor line. (CK & DK) I ended up getting the CK35 HST with FEL and Woods backhoe.

I think the loader is more capable on the DK40 vs. the DK35. Another thing to consider for your extra $2K.
