Does anyone have opinions (good or bad) on the Toyota AD860?
I found one locally for a good price (less the $3k) but it has no hoops and no software. Before buying it I would take my laptop and load a design or 2 to check it out. Currently we run 2 Barudan BENT's and one Happy Voyager and use EOS 3 to talk to all three via RS232 cables. I see the Toyota has a single presser foot similar to the Happy Voyager. We prefer the individual presser feet similar to the Barudans but are tempted to pick up the Toyota because of the price. We tend to do work on the machines ourselves, hook timing, cutter timing, lubricating, etc. Texmac has a great online tech support. Anyone know how the Toyota is?

We have one and like it. It is hard to find technicians in every area however there is a good service DVD that you can get. Datastitch is very good about trying to help you on the phone. With a price below $3000 if you didn't like it FCS might buy it for parts or repair.
