Buying Advice nortrac 25xt fel

[Bob Rooks]

I don't believe anyone was bashing nortrac tractors, (specifically) most of us that use our tractors to make a living, know for a fact that they just don't hold up, for a commercial business. most of us that use a tractor hard, would be laughed off a customers property for showing up on a job site with something like the Chinese junk thats out there.

WOW! More ignorance and prejudice. I have used my dozer on several commercial job sites and the other operators that were there were amazed at it's capabilities for it's size. I do use it commercially from time to time and have almost 600 hours on it with no problems except for the ones I asked for. Calling them junk is bashing in my book. I have never had a problem getting parts. Like most owner/operators, why don't you keep a stock of most often used parts? I do.
BTW, I corrected all of your spelling mistakes. Speaks of professionalism. You're welcome.

you just didn't get it at all did you, never mind, keep your blinders on, what part of 7yrs. ago didn't you understand ? and you try typing on a phone keyboard, oh never mind you wouldn't get that either.
Enough said, enjoy yourself on the bottom of the list. now did I spell that right ????

I've tried not to use my Chinese tractor commercially, but just about every time the local Ag department comes to the neighbor's farm with their hapless blue machines, I wind up having to fire up my Chinese tractor to bail them out of some problem or another. They finally got so they send their biggest NH tractors, (not all that big, only double the HP of mine), to do what my Jinma does at half the horsepower and a third the cost and without breaking.

Now, to me that mostly means that the Ag department doesn't do a good job of maintaining their equipment and I know their operators are careless and crude - it doesn't mean that all New Hollands are pieces of junk. Nor is my Chinese tractor flawless - I had to do a bit of work on it due to faulty factory assembly practice, but it was inexpensive and relatively painless to fix.

Making blanket statements about all Chinese equipment based on one seven year out-of-date experience is as prejudiced and ignorant as saying that all doctors are sadists and bullies because the first one that ever touched you slapped your backside. Whatever brand of tractor you operate, I'll venture that a good amount of the parts on it are produced offshore.

Well, lots of things have changed in seven years, and that barely, if even, qualifies you to speak for the present.
Lots of things to be said about being at the bottom of the "list". It obviously makes me the smartest lemming around.
I type on my Droid keyboard all the time, I just check my work before I click send. It's that easy.
I digress.

Hate to interrupt your argument but what is the point?


The OP asked a simple question and that simple question has become an argument.
Just move on, you're grown men for gosh sake, so ACT LIKE IT.

"....with something like the Chinese junk thats out there.."

This is still the voice of ignorance.

 

[Bob Rooks]

My sympathies to the OP, hope he can sift the grain from the chaff, er trolls.

Great, now that's over I have a question, can you point me in the right direction for a John Deere 110 GT?

To Bob and all for that matter,

You asked for an actual owner, one who had experience on one, you got ONE. Yes his experience was bad. He said he didn't like it. Guess what, that's are just as many people who get lemon JD, Kubota, NH, etc. You don't have to defend them as you are. People have different experiences with machines and too share all experiences and the OP to sort through and make the best decision for him is what is best. Censoring him from the bad of them is just as negative as someone not saying the good. Us sharing why we didn't get them is giving the OP different options as well, something I have very much appreciated through my searches - both past and present to be shown why company __ does this better than __ is helpful. We try to do no less and no more. Yes this single experience from seven years ago doesn't represent everybody, but neither does yours not having any trouble. We share our experiences here and don't tell others that their idea is wrong around here and their advise isn't worthy or right. We are all just trying to help from our experience, we have nothing to gain but the self satisfaction that we helped someone not make the same mistake you did or show them how what you did was the right thing. I'm sure a Nortrac any Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Indonesian, Australian, (you get my point) tractor will be great for most, but as always some will have trouble. To hear the good and the bad is always a good thing.

Seňor, you are in the wrong forum. You know that. But to placate your desire, here you are. Like it or not, it's a world market. And know this - it's the CEO's and corporate boards that ship US jobs overseas. It has absolutely NOTHING to do with "BUY AMERICAN". I would have bought a US built dozer if it had what I needed, but I didn't and I'm very pleased with my purchase.

I've got to find that rock where all these trolls live under, but I digress. Again.

See what John Deere's are made in China:
