Welcome to the forum neighbor!
Take a look at a recent post about pricing on a DK 40hst. In the post there's a dealer in NH you might want to ask about availability and pricing, who seems to have a bunch of demos, etc.
I'd also call Rick at Wallace and ask him what he would do and could do to get one to your door. And I'm sure a few others in this area of VT have bought from Rick and had their tractors delivered by his outfit.
Check out the forum list down past Kioti and there is a list of forums by area of the country- and a bunch of us from VT are there too.
