I've been reading the boards for awhile, but have not posted until tonight. Can someone help me with a price question?
I noticed a 2003 DK50c for sale today and stopped to check it out. Very nice rig. FEL with standard 72" bucket. A quick inspection and drive around the field left me impressed. The tractor was purchased last year and has a total of 73 hours on the meter. Everything seems real tight on the machine. The owner is getting divorced and has to part with his toy... He told me he paid $28,000 for the setup last year and will take $21,500. Is that a good price for a one year old Kioti with cab and FEL? Seems good to me. Also, is Kioti planning to discontinue the DK50c since the DK55c seems to be the newer model??
Thanks for all of your help. I'm sure I'll have more questions once I figure out if the price is right....

Sorry for the delay in posting, it's been busy lately.
I did purchase a DK55 a few weeks ago. So far, I am happy with the tractor. I have had a few problems with the tractor, but nothing major. The adjustment arm for the three point hitch won't turn. Not sure if it has too much grease or if it's frozen, I'll take it back to the dealer for them to sort out. Also, one of the hydraulic fittings had a crack in it that caused a small leak. I bought the new fitting and some teflon tape for 8 bucks at napa. The major problem I have is the gas tank. It's plastic and located on the underside of the tractor directly below the seat. One of the plastic nipples on top of the tank has broken and is leaking diesel everywhere. I haven't taken a real close look, but it looks like I'll need another gas tank. Sigh. I'll check that out better this weekend. ....
