Once you get your hands on a “Chinese” machine. You’ll see how many parts are the exact same even on big brands. Just without logo stamped on them. Reality of the matter is most American brand machines are made mostly overseas. If you can get the same quality of service and reliability it’s hard for a small business to spend the extra 30-50% just to have a name. I wish things weren’t that way. It’s all about profits and the shareholders. In all reality no equipment brand truly cares about the consumer, as long as they are buying something because they don’t have a choice

@@dig_it_starnes5222 damn. What a good way to put it. I agree. No one is coming to save us. The very people who are doing this to us get bailed out while they set it up this way and prey on our brand identities and false patriotism. I own lots of cat and deere etc... and the damn stuff is made all over the world. And they are usually a$$h0les who don't care about service or loyalty. We have to play the game back to these fckrs. Go around the diversion and get smart. It's like Harbor Freight...it gets the job done. I've heard people say..."a man is only good as his tools"...or..."buy once cry once". It's a mental limitation. I have a friend who will not be seen on any motorcycle except for a Harley. I ride whatever I have or can afford at the time. I buy different brands and have fun trying them all. I told him..."while you are complaining that you aren't getting to ride I'm riding...my Honda". It's a limited mind scenario. It's like a roof leak. Sometimes you need to throw a tarp over it so you can make it to payday. Sometimes it's like buying furniture at various name brand stores...you may want French antiques...Bed Bath and Beyond...or Badcock.......sometimes Badcock is better than no cock at all!

I’ve spent about 100 hours on the 155 and I liked it. Especially for the price. I would really like to get their 210 Machine. Little over 50,000 pounds, would be perfect for the dirt pit and land clearing jobs

That’s wild! Glad it was all covered. I have a 333G with over 3,000 hours on the yanmar engine. No actual mechanical failures. Just some bs stuff like coolant tank and turbo boot

@dig_it_starnes5222 The dealer said whoever assembled it did a bad job...

To piss old white people off
