Do I Like The RK TRACTOR? | An honest overview of RK Tractors

how about you I'm Hank welcome to Hamilton veal farm today we're talking RK tractors [Music] [Music] today we're going to go over the arcade 20 for the arcade 37 and the arcade 55 before I go over the tractors I want to say a big thank you to mr. McDonald who is the store manager here at Dothan him and Joey have really went out of their way to accommodate us to film this video so mr. McDonald Joey if you're watching we appreciate you you run a fantastic store here in Dothan Alabama your customer service is outstanding the employees that you have working around the shelves and throughout the whole store it's super super nice and we really enjoy coming up here and shopping at the rule King in Dothan Alabama so thanks a lot if you're watching this I just want to say a big thank you today I want to cover the arcade 24 arcade 37 and the arcade 55 I'll go over the specs of each tractor but if you want to look at how these tractors are viewing a watch a video of how these tractors perform like in a real time environment go look at the outdoors with the Morgans YouTube channel Mike Morgan has these tractors on his property and he does a really fantastic job of showing people you know the lift capacities did pulling capacities how they operate and so I highly recommend you go check out Mike Morgan outdoors with the Morgan to watch these tractors in action but I want to cover some of the specs of them and I want to talk about how arkay puts standard equipment on their tractors with a lot of times are optional on other tractors and so you know things like rear remotes and loaded tires they're all standard and we'll talk more about this in the video but you're also going to hear me talk about their warranty now it's eight year warranty on the powertrain and it leads the industry the other brands go up to seven years the rule arcade tractors go up to eight years I think there's something there's some hours associated with it at 2000-3000 hours I'm not sure you don't quote me on that but you can look it up [Music] I want to start out talking about the arcade 24 well this is their subcompact series and it's packed with features I you heard me talk about in the intro about how they come with all these optional features that are standard on an arcade tractor and so this arcade 24 is 24 horsepower it's got a set of standard remotes it's like we talked about earlier it's got the loaded tires it's got the thing it has some options on it that I think are pretty cool this mid mount mower is available in a 60-inch style deck so you can get a 60-inch mid mount more on this and it also has an optional backhoe on it that you can put on this Ark a 24 and so I think it's really cool because if you add a backhoe to this if you look at the specs for the ark a 24 backhoe it actually digs deeper and has a further reach then some of the green and orange tractors that you'll find on the market and so I think that's pretty cool and I really like this feature that they put on these arcade tractors this arcade tractor has rear remote standard but they also has a control lever for here on the back of the remotes and I think that's really handy for when you're trying to get on and off the tractor it keeps everything convenient and it really works out well so those are some really cool features on the arcade 24 now let's go into the arcade thirty-seven before we move into the RK 55 but before I get into this particular I have the question of the day the question of the day is how important is a warranty to you you know I mentioned in the intro that rule King had an 8 year powertrain warranty is that something that will sway your decision to buy a tractor let me know in the comments below let me know what and what is the most important decision-making factor that you have when you're looking at a tractor to purchase [Music] this arcade 37 is putting out 37 horsepower 28 out of the PC 28 horsepower out of the PCOS powered by yam oranges all their tractors have yen more engines in them so do a lot of other tractors right every tractor that 60 horsepower and less is made outside the United States so if someone talks about all these are you know foreign made tractors so is everything under 60 horsepower so don't gate don't let that drive your decision look at the thing look at the pen debility look at reliability look at dealerships things of that nature when you're making your decision so let's look at this orchid this is the cab model they do have an open station model obviously but you can't get it in a cab and that's good when you're working in this Florida heat or to southern Alabama Heat and so let's just walk around the tractor a little bit the arcade tractor the arcade 37 we mentioned this earlier on the 24 but the real remotes are standard so you see this here it has one set standard on the 37 model you can look at the beefy axles they're pretty impressive you fuel the arcade 37 s right here again you know you could take a sure cane us a gas can and be able to fill this up pretty good real you know it's easy access and things of that nature the it has a rear wiper blade it has the lights that are standard on the cab here rear operator lights the back window it looks like it opens you will see here this is a hydrostatic model so let's look at the cockpit ran this smells new you get that new car smell new tractor smell yep alright so here's what the inside looks like your throttle control lever your hydrostatic pedals you lift control has a 12 point 12 volt charger here here's your range selector your other shifters front wiper blade front and rear wiper blades as a standard radio again nice features and the AC a lot of good things going on in this track a lot of visibility a lot of good visibility so these are some of the features of the RK 37 so let's move on to the ark a 55 and see what it has to offer [Music] arkaid 24 and the RK 37 let's take a look at the RK 55 you know haven't mentioned this yet but I really like how rural King kind of came up with the naming convention for their tractors they came up with the arcade 24 I know it's got 24 horsepower the RK 37 has got 37 horsepower the RK 55 55 horsepower I get it you know it's pretty simple when you think about how they name their tractors in relationship to the horsepower this 55 horsepower is going to give you about forty seven horsepower out of the pto and so you can kind of do the math there but some of the standard equipment that are on all these arcade tractors are these rear remotes this one actually has two sets of real remote standard something that arcade does on their tractors which I think I don't know why every single tractor in the world don't go to this because it met how many times have you got off your tractor hooked up your implement didn't have your quit you either your quick hitch or your three-point heads you didn't have it set up right and so you had to lean over as far as you could to kind of get to the lift control lever up so that the three-point lift arms go up and down to match the implement right so you can line up the pins or line up the quick hitch drives you bonkers right well let me show you what arcade done and they do it on every tractor they actually have a lever in the back that gives you some capabilities to lower and raise your three-point hitch from the backside of the tractor and if every other brand is watching this video y'all need to take a look at this because this is this is the way to go the operator can access the three-point lift controls from the back side and if you look here you can see that the standard two sets of remotes are standard on this our k55 model so it's pretty convenient now I will say something about this backhoe again this is the the eight-point-five here it's an optional for the RK 55 but it also the standard comes with the mechanical thumb you know a lot of if you're gonna buy a bag attachment for a compact tractor sometimes they don't come with thumbs or sometimes you have to buy and hydraulic thumb or mechanical thumb as an optional piece for that backup standard on the RK these rear tires will come standard loaded it if you want to you know you don't have to have them loaded but they will come standard loaded with rim guard in them and so well as every other Park a tractor that you need thinking about buying so any class 24:55 or 24 37 55 will get standard loaded rear tires I've been really impressed with these arcade tractors you know they have standard equipment which is optional on a lot of other brands and that's a real attractive point a selling point for you to come look at the arcade tractors you got to think about are they going to be around in ten years well I think so I think that the people I think the company has already been established as a reputable company and a reputable you know farm supply type company and for them to enter into the tractor market I think his OP is awesome because I think they're going to do really good this Dothan store actually sells a ton of arcade tractors if not the most arcade tractors in America or because of our location close to hurricane Michael so a lot of people bought tractors after Hurricane Michael to do some cleanup with and that contributed to a lot of the sales so and I don't know if anyone that's been disappointed with their arcade tractors and so if you're looking for a tractor that has a lot of extra value for not a big price tag I really recommend that you take a look at the arcade tractors you'll be really impressed with the power that they output the warranties that they cover and all the all the little extra niceties that they get when you get the arcade tractor as always there's
