But you can nary find a Yanmar dealer in this country.
I own a Yanmar that was 20 years old when I bought it in 2003. No issues, it simply runs as it should.But you can nary find a Yanmar dealer in this country.
I think it's a worldwide thing. For instance, here in Portugal, in the entire 2023, they sold so little tractors that they didn't even have their own line on the list of tractors sold across all brands.New Yanmars are very tech heavy… I’m not certain an owner can do much aside from regular maintenance. All I ever hear is to shop the dealer, and have good dealer support. Ideally I’ll never really need my dealer, but he is there. I was set to get a Yanmar until I realized they didn’t have a dealer in my state… their dealer locator shows a few in Indiana, but none actually have tractors… that sorta soured me on the idea. Great tractors, but I couldn’t actually find one.
Nice mower! Just curious did you get that optional mulching kit for your deck? If so how well does it work especially in high grass?Because I didn't need two tractors and a Ventrac is out of my budget. I bought a diesel Kubota GR2020. I have had thee years now and am happy with it.
I added the mulch kit later. It depends on how long the grass is. My biggest complaint about the mulch kit is that it tends to blow out the sides which leeads to needing to clean off the driveway.Nice mower!
