Dan, i bought a iseki tl2300 27 hp grey market tractor about a year ago, great tractor and good value, am looking at a hinomoto 19 hp tractor to purchase also. Iseki cross right over to the Bolens line and was able to get parts, service and owners manuals direct from Bolens, you can't go wrong with these tractors, don't let anyone tell you different. Keep in mind all American tractors below about 40 hp are japanese tractors anyway. Good luck and let me know what you end up doing. P.s., Kubota is involved in a class action lawsuit to prevent importation of thier japanese branded tractors, so beware the source of parts may become tough to find
