This is just my 2nd post, have been lurking here for a while. I left the farm 39 years ago - Farmall M (still have it), Case LA, and Oliver 55. Now that I'm retired I have this crazy idea that I want a tractor to play with! Have only an acre but help plenty of "friends" with more space. I borrow a Ford w/loader about 4-5X/yr. for various projects.

The other online place lists a Kioti LK3054 (90 hrs), Rhino 2408 FEL, Kioti 6' finish mower,6'deluxe grader blade, 3pt carry all, 125 gallon water tank and an 8 roller silver series pump from TSC (rated at 22gpm), home made weed sprayer. Pix look great. Owner says he's downsizing and is asking $15,500. How does this sound to y'all?

I've always been attracted to green but too much $$ - I just wear the hat! The Century 2028 and Mahindra 2810 seem like good potentials, but I've not priced them seriously. Should I even think about the new Kioti LK3054XS? I don't seem to find the specs for LK3054 above online at Kioti-just the XS.

Thanks for reading my ramblings - appreciate anyone's response and ideas....I'm in no hurry at all!

Howdy Scout 180, I have a 2003 LK3054 and have the spec sheet that came with it. If you have a fax I can send you a copy of it if you want. Cannot seem to scan and send anything with the PC yet.

Thanks for the offer Dutch. I may not need your old info. A dealer sent me this today: "The main gear shift lever on the LK3054XS has been moved to the steering column so that it is by your left hand. The front axle is heavier built on the LK3054XS making the tractor great for loader work. The shuttle shift lever (by the seat to your left) makes it quick and easy to change between forward and reverse, which is handy for loader work. The shuttle shift lever is in the same position on both the LK3054XS and LK3054."

Seems the differences make it worth looking very hard at the XS. What comments do you have about your 3054? Have you heard or seen any comparrison with the Century 2028 or Mahindra 2810? Is the Rhino loader better than the Kioti? I read very good comments about the Century C50 loader.
