has it and it is in good shape (no leaks, etc)"
Neither the tractor -nor the "friend" - sound like they match your first
description. This must have been a heck of a disapointment!
I've had my little Yanmar for about 18 years now. And I just bought another
one this weekend because I like them...and because I always wanted one of this
size. It is in good shape, but not particularly inexpensive compared to other
compacts. I did look at several other tractors....including the new Deeres.
For my money, the other compact manufacturers have yet to beat the older
Yanmars. I particularly like the Power-shift feature, the 4 reverse speeds, the
method of driving the front axles, the very quiet and solid engine, the integral
power steering, the factory loader's geomety and breakout force (3600 lbs), and
something I have a hard time describing....but I call it "balance" I measure it
by how familiar the tractor "feels" when I first test it out. Not all of these
features are important to all people...And although Yanmar built tractors for
John Deere, Deere chose not to license all of Yanmar's best technology.
If you compare the John Deere compacts with their Yanmar counterparts, the
Yanmar has more advanced features. As far as parts for useed tractors however,
you just can't beat JD...Although in fairness, my 18 year old Yanmar has never
needed any parts. I order filters a two at a time and always keep spares on
hand. The tractor lives in a shed, and engine oil is changed once a year;
transmission/hydraulic oil is changed every 5 years or so...

I also saw an add for a B7100 with Hydro transmission, 4WD, turf tires, and 54" mid mower for $8,500. Is this a good price.
Thanks in advance. "> Re: Price for B7100HST
