Are you talking ZTRs or GTs? There are quite a few ZTRs that are offered with diesels. As for GTs... Kubota, JD, and Simplicity are the only ones I can think of.

Kubota has diesel mowers and garden tractors, of course.

John Deere offers a liquid cooled Yanmar diesel in their mid-line and top of line garden tractors. X595 for sure. I think one of the new x7xx's is diesel and last year there was one in the 300 series.

I have an older 455 which I bought used last year. It is one rugged powerful little tractor. I test drove a Kubota BX2300 last year, and if I hadn't fallen into the deal I did on the 455, I probably would have gone that route. The BX is a great value -- not necessarily a better tractor than the JD, but dollar for dollar you get a lot (4wd, 3pt hitch, and PTO standard -- they're all options on JD).

What do you think of Yanmar diesel engines? I have friend that was telling me that Yanmar diesels are made in China and are junk. Is this true? Dixon sells only a diesel with a Yanmar engine.

Thanks, John
