You've had the worst luck with that tractor. I know that your experience isn't the norm, but still, it makes me happy I went Kioti.

Kioti was on my list, actually it was on my list on the first position, but they didn't have Backhoe with no ETA, branson had everything

Tractor, loader, Backhoe, 6' box blade, forks, loaded tires for $26k OTD instead of waiting God knows how long. No one had backhoes then and no ETA but I just bought a 60 acres neglected property and needed a tractor like yesterday. Very tempting.

So far, 5 hours all front lights stopped working, head lights were replaced, 20 hours water pump replaced, 50 hours throw bearing, tractor had to be split. 100 hours the rod. 150 hours a hose on BH blown, 175 hours water hose blew, 200 tractor has to be split again for oil leaks from transmission. 445 hours the boom cracked. Nice record for a good tractor lol...

Wow. It sounds like that machine was built on a Monday after a long holiday weekend.
