JD or Yanmar?

[Torvy]

Hypothetical example:

Toyota decides to start selling tractors. They make model 1 for domestic use in Japan and export to a few countries that have similar laws and expectations. They make model 2 for export to North America.

From a quality standpoint, model 1 and model 2 are the same. The differences may be cosmetic, or they may be different to meet market need or NA regulations.

In some cases, the rules for import are different for a manufacturer than for an individual.

A, possibly, more relatable real example. You visit GB and decide you really like a Jaguar with right hand drive. Jaguar doesn't sell or market those in the US, but you could buy one in GB and have it shipped here. Same quality as a left hand drive, just not a "US" model.

Or Toyota Hilux diesel pickup ... I see them with Mexican plates on them, and they are available in Europe too ... But not here in the USA!

Yanmar USA is back and doing very well. There in Ga. Over the Yrs. JD5103, Ym2500 and I still own A 63 Ford 2000 and a Ym2000. known of Yanmar long before most people. Mother knew the kid. She was his bus driver and his mother also! She was at the Infamous Roller over. The YM2000 was my first and it's a all Org. Import. Yanmar usa is local so I get to see all new options. Really Nice!! I'd look that way.
