Dealer wants $15,750 for a new 2010 Cub/Yanmar ex3200 with FEL. There is a "free FEL" offered by Cub/Yanmar on purchases before August 30, 2010.
Another $950 for a rear remote to be added.
The remote $ seems pretty steep. The tractor price seems pretty reasonable for a 32 horsepower, granted its a pretty basic tractor, no mid-PTO, just rear, nothing fancy other than the HST transmission, FEL and shiny paint. But Yanmar makes a great engine so I have no worries about that.
Kubota B3200 without the FEL was in the $19K range. Could that be right???
I see that Kioti now makes a 35hp tractor in the "CK" deluxe line up. I have always felt the CK30 was too heavy for its horsepower but a 34hp option in the same frame all of a sudden looks interesting. And they offer free FELs. Closest dealer is 30 miles away, he is also a 'lawn & garden' place which I do not find comforting. But he's been selling Kioti for several years so maybe he knows what he is doing. Anyone know the price of a CK35hst?
Digging a bit more, while the questionable Kioti dealer is 30 miles away, there is an established Bobcat dealer 34 miles away who sells the Bobcat version of the CK35 (ct235) . . . their build & price system came up with a price of just over $18K for a CT235 with loader, industrials, mid-PTO . . .
