"This is a nice little tractor. It runs great, looks nice, and would be easy for a novice to operate. Has lots of power for it's size, and the all-wheel-drive mode makes you work hard to get it stuck. It sips fuel, and always starts right up. Winter does need a heated garage or block heater (below 30 degrees, it won't start without). Stock wheels and tires give it a rather "tippy" feeling. ROPS is highly recommended, and it certainly does not feel stable on even slightly uneven terrain. Updated tires/rims cost more than the tractor. Loader is extremely slow (which is why I sold it) and there is no power steering. Someone of slight build will have issues with this. I purchased it to clean out an old bank barn with low ceilings. It did the job, but VERY slowly. It's really too small for mowing, and implements (like a tiller) are very expensive if you can find them. One of the biggest problems is trying to lift/haul/power more than it is designed for which can be dangerous. The 3-point is a little narrow for some implements. The seals on the front hubs are easy and cheap to change, but wear out quickly. Overall, this is not much more than a lawn mower without a mower. Not big enough to do small farm work, too big to mow your yard (and belly mowers for this are as common as unicorns). However, if you need a very small tractor and have lots of time, it is a solid, reliable machine; and parts are not too hard to find. Just don't expect much. I sold it for a bigger tractor, which is what you will do eventually."
"Just bought this tractor and it seems to do everything I ask of it. It's a 17HP, 4X4, 3 cyl, with front loader and box scraper. "
