lonny, i am a jinma dealer, and homier has contacted me probably 4 or 5 times about selling the homier farm pro. not interested! why? ther is a big difference in Jinma and farm pro tractors. like any other tractor, you can get cheap versions, and what options you want. the homier is a cheap cheap version. i owned one, matter of fact, it was my first chinese tractor. as far as parts support --- well, i don't think they even stock any parts! i asked on several occasions and never did really get an answer. my supplier can overnite parts if needed, and just as scott has said (northern tool) on another post, northern carries a lot of parts also. i did however talk to a fellow that said he had paid homier for a part (starter or alternator if i remember right), and it had been 12 weeks! no part yet. so don't be fooled by some of the cheap tool traveling tractor salesman! the first time you needed a part or broke down, and was sitting for a couple months, you would take it out on all Jinma tractors, and that ain't how they work! tough, dependable, and parts are plentiful, if you go to the right dealer. no, they ain't no kubota or deere, and that's the first thing i tell every customer. but that's why they're priced thousand below a kub / deere also. i've used one 2 years and never had a minutes problem. backhoe, rear blade, finish mower, bush hog, a little of everything. and also -- homier sells the cheap cheap chines loader which in no way compares to a koyker, which is what we sell, or a great bend, which is what northern tool sells.
