Whether it be electronics, automobiles or medical equipment, the manufacturers should not be able to horde “oem” parts, render your stuff useless if you repair it with aftermarket parts, or hide schematics of their products.

Kubota is probably the best price-to-value ratio in the small tractor market. Parts are much easier to get than some of these Chinese/Indian brands, and you will need to fix it, that's the nature of a tractor.

I have been trying to find a small Kubota from before diesel emissions got really cumbersome, but I am far from any population centers so there aren't a lot of options on the used market. Trying for a Kubota or old Ford maybe

Indians and Chinese, less so.
