    Does Kioti actually have a reputation for reparability? Have been trying to find a small tractor lately

      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

      Mahindra and Kioti have both service manuals and parts available. I’ve seen some people online complain about issues with specific dealers and having to wait for some parts to be shipped from overseas but that isn’t specific to those brands. I’ve never owned either one so YMMV.
