What are the direct competitors to Kioti DK35?

[kozak]

Sorry guys.....but we all know that the NH TC35DA is the best all around tractor out there for Class III tractor when compared against Kioti DK35. /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif

The NH TC33D should not even be considered as it is a Class II machine.

Now that all the guys with a vested interest have had their say, it would be nice to hear from the guys who drove to the dealers then made their choice. I looked at NH, Kubota, Deere, MF, and Branson before I bought my DK 35. It came down to two issues price, and what dealer I felt would give me the best service. Any of the units I tried would have done the job.

I do not know if you are aware of it or not, but Kioti will be coming out with a new looking DK35. It will match the looks of the DK45,55 and 65. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Rumour has it the DK35 and DK40 are coming out with hydrostat trans. Also they now have one of the best warranties in the business to back it up. Just something else to think about.

Have you been told that all kubota parts are easily fit on the kioti yet? Thats what my neighbor was told when he bought his dk and I guess when he found out different it was quite a scene

I've read that misconception was kicked around years ago, and supposedly was repeated by unscrupulous dealers at that time. Any dealer who would lie like that doesn't deserve a customer's trust and should be avoided what ever brand he is selling.

But kubotaman68 bring up a good point, don't forget to look at parts costs when comparing these machines, and not just filters. Also on optional accessories (though standard on some) like additional rear remotes, bucket level indicators, rear work lights and parts easily damaged like head light assemblies or PTO shields. In my area if the parts were interchangeable the Kioti dealership who be getting the lion's share of the business based on price.

I have never been told that or heard that. On another note, have you been told that Kubota copied there new styling from Kioti yet? /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif
