Well, I will tell you what my Grandfather told me (he owned a 544 at the time of this advise 2000). He recommended I buy a kobota over an older tractor (such as the 544). They get great gas mileage, start almost all of the time, and are much safter. That being said a 50 hp kobota with a bucket and a hydro drive will run in excess of 20,000. One key point is in 7 years you should be able to sell this Kokota for about what you paid for it. That all being said, I own a I-544 (his). It works well for what I use it for (less them 20 hrs year). The I-544 works for me. If I were using it more, I would be tempted for a newer machine.
