Not many around here. Only knowledge I have is friend who was expecting to be dealer for them has one and speaks well of it. Mostly used for mowing. He backed off of dealership due to what they wanted him to buy to place on yard is my understanding. That is also when the economy went down. That market is still down here. ....

A solid company that makes rugged machinery. But all a tractor is good for is a place to sit and maybe to show off on your driveway. OK, maybe to tow something.

The work is done by the attachments, so focus less on the tractor and more on what you'll put on it. How good, how easy to install/remove, how much when part of a total package. (What if you want a mid-mount mower and none is available? What if you decide to install a FEL and find it's one-third the cost of the whole tractor?)

The next issue is service. You won't get replacement parts at the local TSC store -- you'll be a captive of the dealer. (Less so if you get a service manual with it and know how to follow its directions.) Every machine will need service. What if it won't start? It may be under warranty but how will it get together with the mechanic?

Of course, try one out. If you're a big guy, you may learn that in other countries the operators are half your size.
Then lool ....
