Tractors used on the Big Isle

[Daniel]

I've been looking into getting a compact tractor for some time, all the major brands are on the island and even some grey market tractors are represented. John deere seems to be the best tractor, but more expensive. One thing that is a must for digging in puna is a hammer/breaker, not available on most compact tractors. A fullsize backhoe seems to be the best choice for lower puna, else-where any tractor will do. Mostly smaller tractors are used at this time on the island, from what I have observed. If anyone has a used, late model john deere compact (or posibly other) , I might be interested if it is for sale.
