• Q. Are there any of these tractors with lots of hours on them without major problems?
  A. Yes. I have heard of some with 8000 or more hours. I personally know of one in northern Idaho with almost 7000 hours on it. The owner states that he has had no major problems. If you are the average small land owner you will put about 100 hours per year on a tractor so it should last a very long time.
