Tractor rentals are about 1/2 that without an operator 'here', but I won't argue the point, if one wants to own, one wants to own. :) And good for that. :) I can stand on the curb and look at a piece of junk and know it is, indeed, apiece of junk. the 3 tractors, made in China, that Homier was trying to sell (it did not help that the guy representing them said they were made by the Chineese division of Kubota so they were just like Kubota...) were pieces of junk. They may not be related at all to what you own, I do not mean to comment on your particular machine. The loader & it's controls especially were extremely crude. On that point, I'll certainly stand my ground. :) I can certainly tell a poor piece of equipment from the 'curb'. Buying nearly all my machinery at auctions, one learns to look things over closely, & see what holds up & what breaks. If your machine has done what you wanted, good for you. I would suggest 50 hours a year is a pretty light test, & if it is built anything like the Homier machine, you shouldn't push it any harder! ;) At least the China-made engines are fairly good for their price. It is the rest of the machine that is of question. Perhaps Jinma has put a bit more effort & polish into it than the Homier branded thing. --->Paul

It is sometimes used so well you can't tell its there and other times used as a sloppy quick fix. Finding where and how it can be used correctly is key to whether you are using it as an "inelegant hack" or an integral solution to difficult and expens
