looking at a t234 tym tractor, its 25 hp and the fel is rated at 1380lbs lift at the pin,with over 2000lbs breakout force,, compareing it to many john deere models, it beats their loader rateings ,on the green tractors on models with over 35 hp,, im baffled

Im looking at used jd models mostly, because they cost alot more than the tym. Im looking for a tractor that is light enough not to crush sprinkler lines and rut residential lawns (badly), but still be able to pull a 5' box blade,and dig out my ditch line. I have a 1963 ford 4000 now,its to big and heavy for my custemers yards.
TYM specifications and pricing is very attractive. My main concern is parts availability.
Kind of what I am looking at as well, as they out spec pretty much everything, but dealers and parts aren't as available, But when you are comparing prices TYM is 30% cheaper or sometimes more, for by all accounts as good as a tractor, it might be to good to pass up. I mean for a loader front blower and cab with heat and ac I get a 39hp or 47 hp for depending on how I finance for 30 -34k. In comparison the kubota 2650 is 30k, and John deere 3033 was like 38k, dont think I can justify that.

Nards, your question is a good one, and we see it a lot on TBN. But let me ask it back - why do you think some brands are more expensive than others?
I'd like to believe they are just as good... who wouldn't? Just judging from the questions raised on the TYM forum here on TractorByNet, I don't see how you can say "by all accounts as good as" JD or Kubota. Maybe by some accounts by certainly not by all. When I look at the TYM formum there seem to be lots of questions about where to get parts and even where to find something as simple as parts diagrams. I don't honestly know which one bothers me - needing parts or not being able to get them.
What "good as" accounts are you looking at? I don't see them.
BTW, the messages I'm looking at are at:
