Sticker Shock..........

[k0ua]

thats funny.... i have always recieved parts, service items in 1 to 2 days for my korean tractor... the same time it took to get parts for my Jd870. Thing is, in 7 years i havnt needed many parts ...go figure

That's when you start to realize that your Korean tractor is every bit as good as the Japanese tractors.

it's the very expensive orange paint they put on it.

My Kubota hat cost me about $20k, but it came with a free tractor.

My hat was $35k

I didnt even get a hat... i beat them so bad on the price, they were happy to see me leave, they didnt make any money off the deal...lol
And thats the art of the deal...!!! Beat THEM before THEY beat you...!

Now I feel really thrifty! I bought 2 hats for only about $9K, and they threw in a Woods BH70X w/ subframe, labor, transport and a plow.

True but thought I saw a Kioti on TBN that needed 1 new injector and it was Over $600



We should start a new thread or Morph this one- about which tractor makers have the most reasonable part prices, with good availability.

It is pretty well known that some older american tractors have good coverage and are generally reasonable (Ford being an example) Maybe Not so much the 4 wheel drive tractors built in the last 20 years.?


ps, gltrap 54 did you get the bracket re-welded , if so post a pic

Mine are higher then that, but price any brand, all of them for the new common rails are expensive.
