I have narrowed my selection to the
LS MT225E/HE/S series and the Kioti CX/CK2510.
I sent a list of questions to each dealer to fill in my knowledge gaps, including an ask for detailed quotes after the initial ballpark estimates they gave me. I'm looking to buy either tonight or tomorrow morning.
Unfortunately, I will not be able to test drive either of these tractors as both dealers have sold out and are only able to keep up with orders. I did get to sit on a CK2610 (slightly bigger) and liked the quality of materials.
I'm planning to get the loader, mmm, backhoe, box blade, quick hitch, pallet forks, backhoe rubber feet, hydraulic top link, bolt on loader cutting edge or cutting teeth, and the rear tires filled.
Would love to hear opinions of others who have looked at these same tractors. One question I haven't been able to find the answer to is whether any of these tractors have the auto-throttle feature.
