Remember folks we are talkin about Chinese and Korean tractors here. Not Japanese. The Japanese tractors are decent enough ( Kubota or Yanmar engines for example). I would never trust a chinese/korean tractor. Those cheap tires will be rotten in 2 or 3 years. Light Axles, clutches, and transmissions would be a problem. Another thing to keep in mind, Is that the company may not be around in another 5 years. Then parts would be a bugger to get. Buy a good used Massey 135 or a John Deere 2020 or 2130. If that's too old, the John Deere 755 & 855, or the 4310 tractors with Yanmar diesels are very good tractors. Kubota tractors seem to stand up well too. Parts and service will be around forever for these tractors, unlike an asian offbrand. I'm a Mechanic for a JD dealer, so I know what I'm talking about. I have seen and Heard all kinds of things about each make and model. Remember, You only get what you pay for. Good luck, Russ
