Sprint

20 years ago I would have said caterpillars hands down
And case were pretty good back in the day as well
But I think they have merged with an Italian company Farmall
And reliability has gone down the drain

You really can't beat a Kubota in terms of reliability

I would also point out that Yanmar make a lot of engines for other machinery

Not so much if you are into wheel loaders
But there are several really good small compact tractors on the market now
This is a rapidly rapidly growing area
If you live on small acreage you can pick up a small Kubota or John Deere
A1025 r

And these little compact tractors only way about a ton
You can stick them on a tandem trailer
And the amount of gear you can buy for them is unbelievable

Backhoes grapples loaders post hole diggers
Drive over finishing mowers slashers rakes blowers

Check it out

Bobcat have recently entered the market with a very reasonably priced compact tractor that does everything I'll post a video later

A few farmers around here wouldn’t put Chenggong on their list ever again.

Hurray - we have votes for Kubota and Bobcat.

I'll put in my amateur vote for Hyundai.
