Good morning,after lurking in these posts and visiting every tractor dealer within 200 miles,I bit the bullet,and made a deal on a ck25 shuttle,of course I needed a few toys to go with it,so FEL,backhoe,rough cut mower (4 foot),and a 3"
chipper. Now next I will get a landscape rake and box blade..I like toys. But don't we all? Actually I have a small landscape business and got sick and tired of trying to hire a small machine for a days work.
I looked ar NH,JD, the other "K" and the chineese tractors however always came back to the Kioti mainly because of the dealer. I have done business with him in the past and found he would always tell me as it was and would bend over backwards to help any way he could. To me service after the sale means everything ;I hate downtime and he stocks most of the parts that normally wear out or break unlike the Chineese dealers that I talked to,and the other dealers appeared to me to cater to the larger tractors and sold the 20-30 HP tractors as A sideline. Thats just my opinion.
I haven't taken delivery yet even though its in, however I want to wait till the 1st of May till the frost is out of the ground before I start playing,hopefully before,the waiting is driving me crazy.
I see you guys like pictures so when it gets here I will put some up and will make sure that I post some of some of the situations that I'm sure I'll get into over this coming summer.
Well thats it for now I would like to thank everyone who posted in this site for their input in the past it made my decision much easier.
