New tractor purchase

[hornett22]

Hey Hornett, thank you for the reply. Can you elaborate why it would be your first choice> To be honest, it was what I had in mind when I first started researching, then I kept reading about getting as much HP as you can afford so I started looking at the 3510 which in all honesty is more than I really wanted to spend.

Size, lift capacity (exactly the same as 3510), weight, price, no emissions crap. It's really a good class to be in. It's cheaper to buy enough tractor now.

The 2610 and 3510 and 4010 are the same tractor. Only difference is HP. If you don't need the horse power at the PTO for a specific reason, you might as well get the 2610 and avoid the emissions headache. The lift capacity is the same.

Again, only difference is HP and price.

Thank you for the info. Is the quote I got on the 2610 a decent price?

In this market that sounds ok. Probably depends a lot on what brand, model and size the rotary cutter is.

Also, is that the SE? That comes with a few more options like mirrors and tilt steering wheel.

The quote says CK2610HB? I believe the rotary cutter is a Kioti model, quote says RC1060 which is the model # on their website

Not sure what the HB stands for.

Not sure what the HB stands for.

I'll get clarification tomorrow.

I chose a CK2610. It is arriving this Friday. I got a lot of help from this great community......
The factors that made up my mind were: tractor weight, front loader lift capacity (almost 800lbs more), dual pedals, rear gas tank, SSQA, higher hydraulic flow. And there was a long wait on the Kubotas, not because of popularity, it seems they were caught more unprepared by the supply chain issues.
I have no experience with it yet, but I watched a LOT of videos that made me feel comfortable with the choice.
Hope that helps.....
PS - Out the door price including Tax and Doc fees was $25k. With front loader and bucket, box scraper and canopy
