It looks as if Montana has hijacked the entire Branson / Kukje line, and even some additional series (3110???)!

I think this will benefit Branson owners everywhere, as it expands the dealer network by quite a bit. Even though Branson warranty work would most likely not be covered - Parts availability would be assured for the future.

Thoughts?

I'd like to know a little more about the warranty aspect. What makes you think we would not be covered? I agree about the dealer network expansion.

That is funny, just by putting different decals they went from Branson to Montana...
Guess we could just order some decals and all have new tractors...lol

But I guess similiar when they went from Century to Branson... I am glad its not the other way and they put the Branson decals on the Montana's...they are not near has heavy..

The outcome should be interesting..I have a Montana dealer closer then a Branson dealer..So does this mean that all Branson dealers will now be Montana dealers?

It was very weird walking by the Montana booth at the ag show recently. Nothing but rebadged Farmtrac's and Branson's in their booth...no green tractors anywhere in site.

Oh yeah...right across from there was the nice big LS Tractors booth...just to add salt to the wound I guess!

Very wierd indeed. The dealer I bought my Century from opted to not go the Branson route and started carrying Montana's. Looks like it's come full circle back for him.

I mean that A Montana Dealer probably would not do warranty work on a Branson that still has coverage, as technically they would not be obligated too...They sell Montana's. not Branson's.

I could be wrong though...

Can't see why a Montana dealer would turn away warranty work in these tough times, since the factory is paying them to do the work. Personally, I can't see this as a good move for Branson owners, I was never impressed with Montana tractors. My Branson is a great machine, really built well. I guess time will tell, I hope I'm wrong.................
