CK3510 opinions

[Grateful11]

Today spent some time sitting on a 2538 and 2638 Mahindra. I am only 5' 10 and found the seating and petal arrangement best suited for maybe someone 5'5 or shorter. Even with walking shoes on it very uncomfortable to lift my feet up and use the foot controls. Seat was pushed all the way back. Felt like I was sitting in a sub compact car with the seat pulled forward. The 2538 was a little better but not by much.

At this point in time going to concentrate on a Kioti 3510 HST but will take a look at a Kubota as well

We spent some time testing a 2538 HST and thought it was ok but the biggest kicker for us was how difficult it was to shift through the 3 hydro ranges. We went to a farm show to see the 2638 and I don't know what they did but deck room between the seat and controls is like you say for someone small. I have fairly short legs and could barely get on and off the 2638. Maybe it has something to do with the new seat. Our son wound up with a CK2610HST.
