Has anyone out there had any dealings with King Equipment Company in Carnesville, GA?Have had some bad luck with a Yanmar FX24D and with a Mitsubishi MT21 before that. The mitsubishi fell apart in a week, and the Yanmar has had several problems including bad wiring, rusty water in the radiator, low on dirty oil,leaky seals on the front diff, broken headlamps and more. Looks like they may have just painted it and called it reconditioned.

Something doesn't quite add up here. How does a Mitsubishi fall apart? Did the engine fall out or did a screw come loose? And did you buy that FX24D without looking at it at all?

I agree with Norm. Something doesn't add up. If I bought a tractor from someone and it fell apart a week later I sure wouldn't buy another one from them. At the same time, anyone considering a grey market tractor needs to do a lot of research so they have an idea of what they are dealing with. You have to realize that no matter what the dealer says, the machine is USED and you can't expect it to be perfect. It seems like most of the dealers we seen in this forum make a reasonable effort to make things right if major problems come up, but if you want a brand-new-fully-warranteed-completely-trouble-free machine you have to cough up the cash for a new machine. If you can give a good idea of the problems you are having and your dealer is no help, there are good knowledgeable people on this forum who can provide advice and dealers who can get parts.
