YM2020D with v2 loader - Should I buy?

[rmully]

I have a YM2020 and love the machine. If it is priced right i woud say go for it. Any major bugs would have surfaced by now. Check it over and drive it first. Good Luck!!

Make sure parts for a 2020 are available in case you need them

Talked to Hoye and they confirmed that most parts are available. I have the expense of a ROPS which is about $800 with Shipping .....OUCH!

Anyone know if there is a source that will sell the service/operating/parts manuals in paper form but also include it on CD? It nice to have the ability to have the paper version in the shop and a loaded version on my computer. Also allows me to print a single page to replace greasy ripped paper ones.

Still looking for opinions on this tractor. I have heard some of the horror stories and wonder if there is any way to identify a VN that might have been put together with parts from different models.

I think Wayne at LMTC is the only one who may sell a CD of a manual, and i may be wrong there, just not sure. I also would say that at 150 hours your over the period of a bad repair popping up. I would say go for it. Anything can happen to any tractor at any hour. You can buy one from Fredricks yourself and 14 months later the thing have a bearing gall out for some reason.

A loader and no ROP'S ask Wayne his opinion on it being a VN. I believe he'll be a good person to ask.

Scotty,
I have a 1500d vn recon that i put about 150hrs on with no problems....only maintenance. As far as the hydraulics....a company called Bailey Hydraulics out of Tenn. will have all of the hydro parts and cheaper in price the the factory V parts.
