I was interested in a CK20 with backhoe and loader. I just got a price quote of $21,000. I thought it was a competitor for the BX22 TLB. The Kubota is $15,500. I guess that makes my decision for me. Anyone get a better price and if so where?

- Kubota B2910, also Honda HT3813 with mower and front blade.
I couldn't find too much info on it on Kioti's website, but it seems to have similar power to the B7500, 3 pt. lift capacity a bit less than B2910, Ground clearance like a B7500 and it weighs about 200 lbs. more than the B2910.
I didn't see any loader or backhoe specs, but at the very least, this tractor is more than a BX, rivals the B7500 and with the extra weight and large wheels, probably can get more of its power to the ground.
It looks like a formidable competitor to the lower end of the B series, although at the price mentioned it doesn't seem like a real bargain.
Do you know how big the hoe is? Is it a 6', 6 1/2' or 7 1/2'. From the size of the tractor, it might take a 7 1/2' hoe, which is only available on the B7800/B2710/B2910.
It quite possibly is more competition for the B21, for which the price you mentioned would make it quite a bargain.
Anyone know more about it?

The CK20 size wise is more comparable to the B7500 with features that rival the B2410. The CK20 curved arm loader raises 14-15 inches higher than the Kubota loaders. The price for the tractor/loader/backhoe package sounds high to me. I would suggest you shop around. The backhoe is the same backhoe used on the LB1914.
GaryG.....If you could fill out your profile and give a general location you would probably get more specific responses.

I need a small tractor with a loader and backhoe. I went and played on the BX22. It is the right size to fit where I need it. Then I started reading the TBN forums. I got caught up in the CK20 that is coming out. I found a dealer that wanted to sell me one. However I expected because of all the comparisons to the BX22 a similar priced tractor. I know it is about 500 pounds heavier. The loader is higher rated about 600lbs. The backhoe I believe is 7 foot depth. The dimensions fit my needs the extra $5,500 does not fit my wallet. Also the Kioti does not seem to be as respected as the Kubota. I just wondered if I got a good quote. If so I will buy the BX22 and be happy.. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

There are a lot of opinions out there. If you look with an open mind and compare feature for feature, you generally will get more bang for your buck and a quality tractor to boot. From the sheer weight of the CK20, a much more serious loader and a backhoe to match, my thoughts are you would be much more productive. What type of soil will you be digging in?
Go to www.kiotitractor.com many of the dealer websites are listed and there's also a dealer locator. Some of the dealers list prices. I think you can do better.

Our property is mostly decomposed granite. Very hard in some places. The added weight of the CK20 was one of the attractions. I don't have a dealer close by so I just checked with several in surrounding states. That is where I got the $21,000 figure.

I like the looks of the CK20 too. But I needed a bigger machine, so I went to a Deere 4310 (32Hp) - It was priced at just over $21000, with Loader and Backhoe, HST and 4WD.
That price is high for the Kioti, but then, there aren't many to be had, yet. Surely that will be corrected soon.

Just noticed Little Tractor has prices listed on their web page for the CK20 and implements. Bottom line looks like about $14,100 for tractor w/ loader and midmount mower.

For only $900 more I got a 3054 w/FEL, 6' finish mower and 6' grader blade. If the larger size is OK for you I would go for it. More weight, more power /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif, and more lifting capacity in the FEL as well as on the 3pt hitch. James Little was very easy to deal with and I am very happy with my new tractor. We saved over $700 and that even included shipping from IL to OH.
