What great advice. It took a while to digest it all.

I realize that the rototiller is probably the right tool but want to have some fun on a toy tractor. Perhaps a rotiller, cultivator, snow blade in front and brush hog. possible a loader in a few years.

I currently have an old Cub Cadet 100 that I love but wanted something a little bigger. My day years ago had a Ford 801 - wonderful tractor but bigger than I want - wife will kick me out of the house.
The small Yanmar sounds like it is the right size. By the way I heard that John Deers are simply Yanmar's painted Green and Yellow. Could they possibly be a parts source for Yanmars?

I also heard the following:

John Deer = Yanmar
Cub Cadet = Mutsubisi (spelling ?)
IH, Ford = Shibaura or Iseki
Northern Tool tractors = China Diesel

Which is the best to get? I would love a live rear 540 PTO that turns in the correct direction.

Thanks
