New guy here, both to the forum and this category of tractors. (My Ford N Series drowned during Isabel so I'm an "N" guy in search of a tractor). A local store is selling a Yanmar Ym1700; an Iseki TS1610 or a Hinomoto E182 for around $2900. They look like new! But beauty is only skin deep so I'm leary. They come with a 90 day warranty. These seem like a good deal but then I know I can get a reconditioned N series for about that and not have a parts hassle....I know, the N's are older. Need something for about 8 acres; very flat (NC Outer Banks); mostly finish mowing with a little blading, raking, scooping...and maybe some light bush hogging. It seems the Yanmar or Iseki have the biggest fans? Is the price right? Any ideas on which one? Thanks much. Steve
