Is export only? Because i bet its lacking all the usual safety and EPA crap. Does stand ump turn the machine off? Does use ethanol? does it have a CARB compliant engine? is the PTO properly guarded?

Alice Chalmers made one like this as shown in the same picture as did John Deer. They fell by the wayside due to lack of demand. This “new” tractor is rather large but light weight with flimsy looking front end. The Yanmar rice paddy tractors and the newer compacts by John Deer, Kubota, Ford-New Holland are more practical, have better weight distribution and will fit standard equipment. A used unit with 1000-1500 hours will bring $15000 with a cab and loader. Better by far. I want a farmer or construction guy on the design phase, not a Cuban computer geek.

No kidding! Me too! I have a small 1.5 acre tract that I could fully utilize with that thing. Enough veggies for me all year and a bunch to sell. Great idea.
