I bought a brand new 25HP Foton 4wd tractor from a Chinese importer who had a about 20 brand new ones he had to sell quick here in Auckland New Zealand. This is by far the worst tractor I have ever owned.The only thing in its favour it was cheap. It is now two years old and about 100 hours. My gripes are [1] the so called forward/reverse lever is incredibly difficult to operate and needs huge amount of strength, scared something will break. [2] After about 30 minutes the glass on the dashboard fogs up and you cannot read the instrument's at all. These two faults are common to a friends one he purchased at the same time as me out of the same container. My one has a loud clunk in the transmission, when going forward and back, something must be loose in the transmission. If anyone has any ideas on what it is please let me know. Foton trucks are now being sold in New Zealand, but not the tractors.
