I have a JD 5303 made in India and I love it. Three years old now, so I don't know what will happen to the engine in the future, and I use it for loader work and cutting/tedding/raking hay. And some bushog work. So not real intense pulling work.
I agree with others that it is very easy to get in/get off of, shift levers are to the side, flat platform. I think any tractor will be hard to get up on with bad knees though - every tractor I've ever been on had at least one or two steps.
