several years ago I drove 1/2 the day to look at a John Deere 2010 series these people had advertised back when roger was running the show, he told me over the phone everything worked like it was suppose to, tractor runs and operates great, no problems.Upon arrival I found out the tractor idled at 2000 rpm, PTO did not engage, and the 3 point hitch only went all the way up or all the way down, no in between. The rest of the day was spent driving back home with no tractor. A entire day wasted along with 2 tanks of gas.Fast forward ahead several years.I believe now his sons are running the show and I thought maybe under different "management" things might be different. They had a specific model tractor I had been looking for. I called and asked about it and was again told several times over the phone everything worked like it was suppose to and this tractor had low hours so I though it might actually be true.Spent another 1/2 a day driving to look at this tractor and upon arrival I find this tractor I had come to look at starts and runs and idles, but the 3 point hitch wont stay put, it has cavitation so the implement will sit there and "bounce" continuously making it impossible to use any implement. The other son comes out from the "shop" and tries to "adjust" the 3 point using some pliers, not wrenches, and proceeds to round off the stop nuts on the linkage.Some negotiation later, I wind up purchasing the tractor thinking I can fix the hydraulic problem or have it repaired by John Deere.Not even 1 hour of run time in after I get this tractor home the water pump locks up solid. AND upon closer inspection the fuel cap has a hole in it and has allowed water to enter the fuel system.Countless hours of labor and several hundred dollars of parts later, I replaced the water pump, the drive belt, and the entire fuel system, up the injection pump.I haven't even started to dig into the the hydraulic cavitation problem yet.These Bunse people do not inspect or go through any of the machines that they turn around and flip from where ever they get them from. They will straight up lie to you on the phone to get you to drive hours to their location where you will find out the machines they are selling are just complete trash. And if you don't find all the hidden problems with the machine at their location you WILL find the problems when you get it home and actually try and put the machine to use. Then you WILL have several thousand dollars in repairing ANYTHING that you buy from them BEFORE you can use it !If I could give negative stars on this review I would.Absolute complete waste of my resources.DO NOT waste your time, energy, fuel or money with these people. They are scam artists are their highest level.
