"Although I am not a professional farmer (but grew up on one), I've have seriously used this tractor clearing land, brush hogging, planting deer plots and gardens. The small size makes it so much easier to use vs. full size 50 hp and 80 hp tractors, in the woods and gardens. That said, there are some serious mistakes in building this tractor: 1. If you have a front end loader, you will break the frame just above the front wheels. I would write this in bold if I could. 2. Just about all electrical connections do not lock together. I spent a year zip tying them one at a time. Brush hogging shakes everything lose. 3. Every rubber fuel line had to be replaced within five years. 4. The rear wheels hold about an inch of water inside the diameter of the wheel. So you run through a ditch and park you tractor a while. Your wheels now rust on the inside of the rim. 5. To activate the PTO, pull up on the hand clutch, select PTO speed with another lever (USA models only have 550 rpm speed.) then with another lever push the PTO into gear. Now let out your hand clutch. No you cannot leave the 550 gear selector lever at 550 after stopping the tractor. Tractor wont start. Now the good stuff: The motor and transmission is solid. As in no problems. 4 wheel drive with a electronic button to lock the differential has got me out of a lot of jams. I get tons of creek gravel out of a dried up creek every year. "

Pros: Motor and transmission as the 4 wheel drive with the electronic button to lock the differential. Cons: If you have a front end loader attached, you will break the frame. Type of User: Homeowner 10-50 Acres Location: USA TX I also considered buying:
