There are some good points and bad points to those tractors.Lets start with the good,the engines are tough as nails,transmissions and rear ends are pretty decent reliability wise too.They are decent cold starters and very easy on fuel and most people's first like is they are very cheap.On the more negative side,they are very rough and crude operator wise.We had an open station 825 bought new once,came with a cloth seat,that's how much inovation was included in creature comforts.Cleaned your a$$ every time you sat on it after a rain lol.We used to keep feed bags stuffed beside the seat to sit on in wet weather lol.Most of the dash shorted out after the first year too.However cheap you buy it,you will have trouble re-selling it for more.Point's to ponder,if you get it cheap,are only going to use it for short periods of time ocasionally,than you will be money ahead.If you are planning to run it several hours a day most days,than you are worth more than the money you will save compared to somthing nicer to use.They will shake the dickens out of you and play you out after a long day on them.As with anything else,you get what you pay for,good runner,hard on the operator.pd.
