Hello from Tx.
I am looking at a YM1810D. Does anyone know of any problems with this model? Thanks......Mac

Is it a recon in the USA or VN? I have a 1610d and love it! Bought it from RCO TRactor in Austin Texas. Great people to do business with. Does it have a rollbar (ROPS) seatbelts??

What part of TX ? Lots of re-cons in my neck of the woods.

ROPS alone is no longer a sign of a non-vn recon. I've seen pictures of such units with a ROPS that by appearances is a crude fabrication, but I cannot pass judgement on them as I've not seen them up close. I would urge anyone shopping to make sure the ROPS has an OSHA approved sticker/label on it, as I am betting the ones I've seen are knock-offs that have not gone through the OSHA approval process (which is expensive and of course requires lots of engineering input and testing).
Of course one way to be about as certain as possible is to stick with a UTDA dealer.

Can you post a picture of it?
Its worth a thousand words, and cuts down on all the questions.

Thanks for all of the replies. I have not got it yet, but if I get a recon it will be from RCO in Austin. They are done here and not in VN. I just wandered if anyone had heard anything negative about the 1810D. Thanks......Mac

Are you saying that RCO recons the tractors in Texas??? Just wanting to understand.

[BruceR]

RCO has dropped the VN re-cons and now sells UTDA units.
