I am trying to decide between a Yanmar 2010D, 2220D and a Hinomoto E2304. All 4WD. Any opinions? Best for parts? Etc... I have a 5 ft. Howse hog, 6 ft blade. I will be cutting about 5 acres of gently rolling fields. I will also be getting a FEL. The Hino has about 1100hrs., the Yanmars have about 600 hrs.

Bill gave some excellent tips, few things I might add are, dont let whatever your cutting get ahead of you. All the tractors your looking at are in the 24-27 hp range its going to be a stretch for them to pull a 5' bushhog.
I believe Yanmar to be the easiest to get repair parts for of any grey tractor. The Hino is a good tractor as well I sold an E23 2-wheel drive to my cousin and he's been very happy with it.

I am assuming these are all "gray market" tractors.Most parts seem to be available, and surprisingly reasonably, for those Yanmars. There is a good selection of aftermarket parts available. I dont know about the Hinomoto, make sure you have a good source of parts for that exact model of tractor, as it is sometimes a hit or miss situation on such tractors. Try to ascertain the country of origin of these units, Viet Namese units usually have had a rough life, whereas the top grade of the Japanese imports may be a very decent, well maintained unit, or a professionally reconditioned unit. Of couse, expect to pay for quality. Inspect carefully, looking for leaking seals, rust damage, notably in the brakes and linkages and the steering gearbox. Look for water and dirt contamination in the transmission. Crud in the radiator is common, some are so plugged that overheating is guaranteed. And, its important to do a little research on your dealer. You can find very good and very, very bad ones!
