Branson was sold sounds like a good thing to me. Large companies like TYM don't go around buying companies that are not worth buying. :thumbsup: No dog in this fight. I drive by the Branson assembly plant everytime I go to the parts house. Sure is a pretty site all those tractors of different sizes lined up.

Well, there's that.....
Some things we call "Computer Industry Secrets." Because when they are losing, competitors always suggest, "Don't buy that competitor's system, or new one will be out next week/month/year."
And customers don't want to buy something that's "obsolete." If you can buy it, it's already obsolete....

Might as well keep this thread alive.
In January I added a Branson 2400 to my corral. While shopping the selected dealer, TYM was also there. A 24ish HP TYM was sitting next to the tractor I later bought. I shopped both. My conclusion is that TYM is leaps and bounds ahead by acquiring Branson.

Was that at Big Reds? I also looked at the TYM's while there.
I was surprised Massey Ferguson is "coming down in quality" to get closer to price.
Same with John Deere and New Holland - - - the stuff they are bringing in from India does NOT impress me at all!!! (& is WAY overpriced)

As I said would happen, it's NOW a done deal, TYM owns Branson...
Geee, I guess it wasn't "hear say" or "just a rumor" after all... ha ha ha

No but I do some mail order business with them. It was on the other side of the metroplex.
