Finally realized I was spitting into the wind with basic homeowner type of equipment so it was time to get something with a bit of muscle. Should keep me busy around here over the summer.

She's a YM2310D and was delivered earlier today so I spent a quiet afternoon learning all the controls and accessories.

Are there any marking on the ROPs for a manufacture? If so, who?

And who made the canopy? It has a great look.

Will get back to you on that.

I had a grey market Yanmar similar to yours. It was a very good machine. It was 15-20 years old when I bought it but it looked like new. I put a lot of trouble free hours on it. I used it for about 15 years and when I needed a bigger tractor I sold it to a neighbor who is still using it. In the States you don't see any newly imported grey market tractors. There is a dealer in mid-State who was selling grey market tractors that are Vietnamese re-furbished tractors using junkyard parts. It is a pretty sizable risk to buy one of those.
