I think since I was employed by a JD dealer during the time frame of new 2010 sales I can speak from my experience. Gasoline engines in 2010's didn't give the same amt of trouble as the diesels. I think this was because gasoline had lower compression ratios. 2010 diesel blocks were known to crack between liner holes plus pre-combustion chambers in the cyl heads would get loose and give trouble. The fact 2010 diesel required glow plugs to get them started plus the failures of the Prestolite starters gave 2010D the reputation of being hard starters that smoked a lot until they warmed up. Brakes on 1010/2010 were nearly non-existent when they were NEW and only got worse with age. The hyd linkages inside the rockshaft housing 2010 RC resembled an erector set that had been hit by a TORNADO. The rockshaft seals were also prone to leak. Other than the things I pointed out they were ok tractors. I've heard an old saying about 2010's

"A person couldn't break a good one and couldn't repair a bad one"
