FX22D Experience

[Pozzman]

I have owned a YM1702 for the last four years and it has been great, use it mostly for brush hogging. However, I want to start plowing and use a post hole digger, may eventually get a FEL. I am thinking of trading it up for a FX22D with electronic controls.
Are parts for this model tractor hard to come get if a repair was needed?
Does anyone have any input (good or bad) regarding this machine?

Thanks

My F22d has been great, the only parts I needed, (Decompression cable, oil/air/fuel filters) were available from Hoye. And my dynamo bearings I got from a bearing dealer online. Works great with a loader, has plenty of power and you will find that the shifter being next to your right hand is very nice for loader work. Mine has the UFO controls with the tilt feature, I used it a lot this past year while cutting a road on a slope with my box blade.
