Are Rural King tractors actually garbage?

An owner of a used 2019 RK24 with roughly 200 hours of his own use shares a candid rundown of real failures: a burst hydraulic line, a recurring flat tire, a blown axle seal, a leaking bucket cylinder, and a backhoe with dangerously loose cylinder shimming he fixed himself after Rural King misdiagnosed the pressure issue. No specs comparison or pricing, but useful for anyone weighing RK24 reliability firsthand.
