Farm Pro Tractors

[Redneck_Randy]

Hello all

Are the Farm Pro tractors the same import manufacturer that Rhino International were? Did a forum search and see a few are satisfied with thier Farm Pro's. I have an old Rhino International 2220 that I have owned for 6 years. I have worked this thing hard all that time and it's been a good tractor till now. The electrical system is failing fast. I looked at the New Holland since I have a dealer close. Would love to have a TC33 Gear, None DA model with a FEL and the backhoe later on but the price for just the tractor and the FEL was a bit much. I was quoted $17,992.00 + tax I looked at the TC30's but they didn't do anything for me if you get my drift. LOL

Thanks
Randy

I think it was a different importer and different plants. Farm Pro is either a Foton or Jinma. It depends on the size of the tractor. I think Foton has only been in the USA for 3 or 4 years.
I have a couple of Fotons, I think they are very good tractors.
Your electrical issues are probavly easily fixable. But maby its time for some new red paint.
Good luck.

Memory failed me. In hindsight, Chip's got the right answer.

There were several products branded as Rhino. Most were Benye, a couple models were Jinma, I think Shanghi (now CNH owned) and Tietong (sp? (now John Deere owned) rounded out the lot, could be they brought in the little dozer under that name as well.
