Like others have stated, stay with a name brand, non gray market tractor. Also just to let you know Hinomoto is bankrupt. My neighbor has one and needs a bell housing. the only way he can get one is from a NOS dealer in japan. From what I understand there are still a few new Hinomoto's floating around at various dealers trying to get rid of them. I wonder if they are telling the customers about the condition of the company.

Interesting about the hinomotos- My mitsubishi is already a pain to get hard parts for. There was a dealer at the local fair that had new hinomotos- he said he'd make a heck of a deal but said nothing about the bankruptcy.
Yes, Agco owns the MF line and the Challenger line, which used to be own by CAT, and mccormick. They are also the company that bought out the original allis chalmers, white, oliver, and minneapolis moline. (AGCO is acronym for Allis-Gleaner Corporation). There's a lot of history in this company!
