Price Paid : $14,200.00
Years of Use : 2-Years
Implements : Loader
Purchased From : Dixie Tractor
Strengths Strong on power yet easy on the fuel. Right size for the job.
Weaknesses I have concerns on the rollover protection system (ROPS). The corner of the ROPS contacted a pole guide wire with very little force. The damage was the back side of the final drive housing being ripped out. It was repaired under warranty but I am concerned should it ever roll over. Not sure the ROPS will hold up.
Overall Very pleased with the total package!

Years of Use : Test Drive
Implements :
Purchased From : Albertville, AL
Strengths Just an average tractor
Weaknesses Salesman, was lazy. Wanted me to buy a tractor on price alone. Unit underperformed what I was sold. Had minor quality issues that make the unit that more unpleasurable. My neighbor just bought a NH and I think I'm going to Huntsville to try a blue tractor
Overall Very disappointed. The price of good quality is alot better than the bitterness of cheap price!

Years of Use : 2+ Years
Implements : FEL, brush hog, boompole, sprayer, cultivator, Yard Tool, Flail Mower, back hoe, Post hole digger
Purchased From : Skyview, Marion, VA
Strengths A good field mower and the loader works well.
Weaknesses PTO Drive shaft can break, PTO doesn't cut off, Jerky 3ph until finially got it replaced, Top link not strong enough for hauling heavy bales or backhoe use, I heard one guy, his ROPs hit a tree and the bolts cracked the rear of the axle where they attach.
Overall A garden tractor on steroids... but not much of a real farm tractor.
