What is the general rule for how much HP is required to pull a given number of bottoms on a moldboard plow? I remember my grandad's Allis Chalmers (B) would pull a single bottom plow and only had somewhere around 14-15 hp. I'm wanting to know if my 22 hp ct122 will pull 2 bottoms. Bob

Fellow pack members, I finally got pics of my 23 hr old CT122. I have been having a great time learning how to operate a tractor that is more than a garden tractor. It's been quite dry here in Indiana, so it gets pretty dusty but that beats digging in the rocks of NH where I grew up. I've...

I've already posted on the Kioti side, but had to post here also. I'll be trying out a new CT122 tomorrow at our new home which we will be moving to this weekend. The 2 acre lot is flat, prime, Indiana farm land, so the CT122 should be just right for my needs. I decided on the "white Kioti"...

After several months of looking and thinking, etc., I am going to be the proud owner of a new white Kioti. I had to go with the Bobcat because of the proximity of the dealer and their impeccable reputation. The dealer will be bringing a CT122 to my lot tomorrow for my "official trial". I had...

In Lafayette, IN: The Bobcat dealer has had an open house to display the new CUT and these are the prices I was quoted: The Bobcat CT225 HST with FEL $17586 compared to a Kioti CK25Hst w/FEL from a dealer 40 miles away is $15970. The BC CT120HST with FEL is $14798 and the Kioti CK20 HST w/FEL...

Greetings from Mid-North Indiana I've been looking into buying machine to use on the 2 acres we have bought and will be putting a house on in the next few months. Besides using it for mowing, tilling, and snow removal, I will be doing a lot of the landscaping. Having grown up in New Hampshire...
