Very few people have 1st hand knowledge of China tractors, not that many out there. This forum is about old American tractors, so you will get some negative comments - just how it is. In general, China tractors leak a lot, and the castings are weak, even if they look big & beefy, they are not good iron & will crack or break. With so few around, parts are difficult to get quickly, and dealers seem to come & go & change year by year. Know what you are getting into, figure you won't ever get much at all for it in resale, and don't depend upon it for anything important/ only tractor, as repairs could take weeks or months, instead of days. China is quite far behind on casting & building skills. Perhaps in 20 years they will be on par with Japan, but not yet. Just my observations from several years on the internet pages, without any real experience or knowledge of that brand name. --->Paul
