Looking for thoughts on the DK 35 vs the older 3504. I'm narrowing down my selection and see that the 35 is less than $2k more. It appears to have numerous creature comforts and I'd expect more performance. Thanks

I have 10 hrs on my DK35.They had a recall on the Kioti loader.The bucket was slamming against the frame in the curled up position,they came out and fixed it when I wasnt home.Now the bucket has stops on it where you cant curl it up past the level position...which is the flat on the ground position!!!!!!I dont know if you have ever worked one but if you cant curl it up you loose alot of whats in the bucket,anyway I took off the stops. They said it would eventually make the seals leak on the cylnders and make the hydraulic cylinders oval.I marked it so I know when to stop and it doesnt hit the loader frame.The tractor is nice but I think the 3504 is probably the same except for the styling.I dont need a light to tell me I set the brakes or directional signals to hang a left turn but it might be nice for other people!! ....

When I bought my LK3504, the DK was only avialable as the 45hp. The new DK's are very nice, but I still am pleased with my LK. The DK will get you a more modern look, flat operators platform and more creature comforts. Both will funtion the same and in the end, will do the same job. It is up to you to determine if the differences between the two is worth the extra hard earned dollars. It probably would be to me.
