: I CAN BUY A 28 HP 4WD CHINESE TRACTOR NEW DELIVERED FOR $9600 WHATS THE STORY ON THESE IMPORTS THEY ARE ALMOST HALF THE PRICE OF JAPANESE. HOW DID THEY STACK UP FOR QUALITY, PARTS AND PERFORMANCE? LIKE TO GET AROUND THE JAPANESE RIP OFF BUT DO NOT WANT TO GE STUCK WITH A POOR PRODUCT. ANY ADVISE APPRECIATED.
Good question. It is hard to believe that Russia has kept selling tractors in the USA. Russia couldn't/can't make trucks or cars that last; no country wants them, but their tractors are good enough to export. If I had to make a bet I would say the China tractor is a pretty good value.
