New (to me) Yanmar

[Green Acres N Ham]

Hi,
this is my first post, I can't stop smiling ,
I just took delivery of my Yanmar YM2210BD on Monday Jan 22 2007
I am going to plug RCO tractor here because during my purchase/research I read some discussion here about buying a rebuilt Yanmar and it seemed RCO got some attention and it wasn't all good.
not only did my tractor arrive looking good as new but everything worked smooth just like new (I tested a Chinese tractor and couldn't for the life of me get into 4WD) that wasn't the case with my Yanmar
let me just say the tractor was delivered by the owner and he took a lot of time to go over every detail and function. he had a busy day ahead of him with more tractors to deliver, but he was very patient and didn't leave until all my questions were answered. many companies could have delivered that via third party and dropped the tractor off at the door and left. I think this personal service say's a lot about their integrity and their product. they believe in it and they stand behind it.
My neighbor also has a rebuilt Yanmar purchased from another dealer in Texas and I know for a fact that he got good service from people who stand behind their product long after the sale
so if your thinking about buying a rebuilt Yanmar I believe you can get a good product from good people.

Congrats on your new tractor. I have a 2210 it is a very nice model. I don't have 4wd but still a good model. Good luck with your purchase. Did you get a front end loader? Did you get any other implements?

Green Acres,

Congratulations!

I purchased a Yanmar YM2000 from RCO Tractor about 5 or 6 months ago(?). Like an idiot, I traded it for a wrecked 2001 Ford Ranger 4x4. I had an over-heating issue with the tractor when I first got it. Part of the radiator was stopped up.

Anyway, to make a long story short, RCO paid to have the radiator rodded out. It didn't cost me a penny, which it shouldn't have to begin with. There was no argument with them over the issue.

All in all, I was pleased with the dealer and the tractor. Would I buy another from them? Definitely.

Stuart is an awesome guy. He and John are both friendly people. I wish every dealership- wether it be tractors, cars, boats, atvs, etc.- were like them. Unfortunately, it isn't like that.

What all do you plan on doing with the tractor?

Travis R

I do have a picture and implements listed on my profile, I haven't figured out how to get the pictiure to show up with my post. I have 4WD, front end loader,9"post hole digger,5' box blade and 4' bush hog. I have 10.76 acres and a new home that is almost complete. I will be landscaping at first then fencing for some critters, and mowing.

That is a good looking tractor, I like the seats they put on them.

Very nice indeed! Congratulations.

Is that a Bulldog FEL or does RCO now manufacture their own line of loaders?

it is their house brand, I don't know who builds it.

Where is Cat Spring, Texas? Is the dealer there, or did you have to go to larger town? I'm near Dallas, and was wondering where a Yanmar dealer is near me.
