I bought a KIOTI CK20 new in 2009, mainly because it is only 48" wide and can get into places my bigger tractors can't. Right now, it has only 420 hours on it so, even though it's my 'go-to' tractor, I can't say that it will still be good with a thousand or more. I got it with a KIOTI FEL and b'hoe. I have kept up with the maintenance and run Schaffer's 15w40 oil in the crankcase and TSC hydraulic oil. It is heavy- built and weighs 4,000# as equipped and the fenders, hood and grill are steel, not plastic. I have had ZERO issues with it. The hydrostatic drive is excellent and allows finer work than my old eyes and reflexes can truly exploit. I call it a 'Mini Power-Brute' as it is a definitively an 'over-achiever'. So, 'buying American' was in my mind BUT I refuse to pay 10% or more for an American-brand that's made overseas, and I am not 'color blind'.
As far as service is concerned, there are plenty of independent shops with the knowledge and tools to keep the modern electronic garbage working at less cost than what a dealer charges once the warranty runs out. I would look at KIOTI, MAHINDRA & KUBOTA(even though they are getting pretty spendy) if I needed a different tractor today. 8)

But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga
