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.

Good to hear that there is a domestic option but Mahindra, of India, and Kioti, of South Korea, have been making owner repairable tractors for years.
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.
and Kubota is an old establishedplayer in this space..
Indians and Chinese, less so.
love my kubota..
