OK this is my first compact. I've been pricing out many differend tractors and talking to many people. The JD is out of the question to much money for green paint 800lbs less tractor and more plastic then my car. New Holland nice tractor a bit more money, Kubota also nice tractor more money, several others also nice about same price. I have yet to get information on how easy or hard all of these tractors are to work on. Any tips on "Kioti" or others you may work on. I can fix almost everything and tools and the shop are not a problem. More money is worth it to me not to have the aggravation of breaking down.
Thanks
Brian
