Thanks everyone, very much!..I am not turning my Kubota card just yet, I put a couple of hours on the 'bota this afternoon and evening (whoops sorry Kioti dealer
). moving about a single axle dump truck worth of mulch and about 4 or 5 bucket loads of rocks. I of course am pretty excited to get the DK35se and put it to work, we have a lot of outside projects, and more on the way. Expect delivery in maybe a little over a week, Waiting on a steel sunshade, tire loading, and dealer prep. Let me tell you the Kioti dealership was crowded. We had to wait our turn on a salesman. Thanks everyone again for the warm pack welcome!

James,
A steel sunshade? My canopy is plastic! I think I might be jealous!
Be well sir!

yeah it is not real sophisticated just a piece of bent sheet metal with some sort of fiber insulation on the bottom side of it to be a little cooler. I saw one off of a used new holland, but I thought it would be worth the $198. They said that was their cost. But will take at least a week to get here from Dallas after they order it Monday. I am pretty pumped about getting the Kioti,, the wait will hurt, but at least I still have a tractor!

Well I guess I missed a lot of your excitement here this last few days. Glad you ended up getting a tractor. I had to look it up on machinery trader to see what they look like. The one I seen had a quick disconnect bucket. Did you get that? That is a nice feature.
Well all you Kioti guys, I sure hope you don't gang up on me cause I went and bought a new Massey 1526 yesterday. I also sold my little Massey this afternoon and didn't even put it on the market yet. Mine isn't as big as yours James but is sure is pretty. Gonna have to get the wax out haha. Want me to send you a can??

Yes it does, all of the DK series have that feature. Wow show some pix of that new Massey, I bet it is pretty. Might have to take you up on that wax offer.
We got almost 5 inches of rain this week. I did manage to work in the yard some this evening (R4 tires) but it is kinda wet and they left some marks. Will be about perfect for digging up rocks and pushing over trees though.!

Here is one the dealer sent me. I haven't had the chance to take any of my own yet. We ended up with 5 1/2 here. At least that's what the boss told me we had on the job site. I am trying to find a finish mower to put on the tractor. I'll get a few pictures of my own to you soon.

Dont know how I missed this thread, but what a saga:thumbsup:
Full report IS expected on the DK35. And how it compares to the 3400:thumbsup:
And since it seems all of these kioti owners are welcoming you to the pack.......
I guess for me, its adiós amigos
And I also "assume" you had authorization from the CFO to go ahead....or are you sleeping in the dog house?:laughing:

Woof! Woof!.... No just kidding, she attended and blessed the trade and it was about $25 more than the present payment so we should still be able to buy beans!Dont know how I missed this thread, but what a saga:thumbsup:

Will do, but the DK series is more like the Grand L Kubota series, so a direct comparison might not be fair. The CK series is like the standard L series except all but the little one have telescoping lower links
