As I always say when purchasing new equipment- dealer support is key. Whichever brand offers superior service is the brand I'd go with. I'd do a short term rental with the dealers you're thinking about purchasing from to get a feel for their service. All brands have some sort of quirk depending on the model- but if you can't get service or parts, it doesn't matter how good the machine is.
