I've got to side with those suggesting you look into TYM; if you've got a dealer you get a good feeling from, one who will support you and bat for you should the machine need work, I'd take that over RK any day. The machines are good, especially when they've been set up properly- dealer prep is extremely important.

I sold mine with 356 hours; it was competent, lifted everything I needed, and had a great backhoe. I pulled a two-bottom 18-inch plow with no issues. It arrived with a bad ECU, and they had to pull the wiring harness since there was a new version. The alternator went out at 6 months and had to be replaced. Just like TYM the RK has the same issues with the front tires falling out of the axle with zero warning. The service tech at RK stated they fixed that issue, and it should not happen again.
