If you are looking for a straight tractor with hp and simple,they are a good tractor. I just traded ours off this spring,not sure where you are from,but mine was still on the lot where I traded it this summer.Mine had the Cummins,24.5x32 duals.1997 model. A real work horse, big roomy cab.The transmisson, it shifts just like a truck,if you can shift a truck you can shift that tractor.I had nothing but good luck with ours.Most anything for the motor or transmisson can be bought at a truck place if you dont have a dealer close Illinois Gleaner
