CK25 vs CK30 Buyer!

[buyerjohn]

nice holes...and a big pile of concrete...looks like way more work than digging the holes! Makes sense about 72 vs 60 so 72 it shall be.

I'm going to test drive Matt's ck30 over the weekend hopefully and make my final decsion real soon...of course, all you tractor geeks (of which i'll soon be one!) will be the first to see a picture or several pictures as i start inventing projects to do...

John,
I have the 72"BB and have done quite a bit of grading/leveling on old logging roads including some on quite a incline and had no trouble at all pulling or scraping as much as i wanted. I kinda wish i had gone for the 6' brush hog because the 5' really has no trouble out in the pastures, but the dealer recommended the 5' in case i decide to cut thick stuff. I think i will keep a eye out for a used 6 footer, then have the best of both worlds. I also got the Kioti sunshade and the dealer installed it for free, didn't find any after market that much cheaper. If ya get the kioti, drill two small holes in the front corners of the gutters. The gutters catch alot of water that "dumps" as soon as you start moving....a real wake up in Jan /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif! Also, don't forget the grill guard($180)...i did and it is waiting for me to pick it up at the dealer! Good luck!

Aaaah somebody misses me /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Like Jim said we are right out straight here.
Which by the way is a good thing.

I'm checking in today because we have 2 Kioti engineers
here and they asked me to find some things for them.

It's gonna take me 2 weeks to get caught up with TBN ~ and that's if I start right now.

Hope to be back soon /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
