Branson Dealer Support

[Texasmark]

messick's guys are fantastic for sure, another great dealer is in plainview, Tx ( Panhandle Tractor/Jenkins Automotive )

If you have tractor problems you can't solve, Buster (Jenkins) is well versed and eager to help. When I bought the 6530, I had AC idler problems. Gave Buster a call and he notified the Branson traveling trouble shooter. Not long after that the guy sends me a redesigned (beefed up) idler pulley, bracket, and V belt, free of charge with his compliments. Fixed the problem. Been 13 years and zero problems with the redesign.

Wow, Panhandle Tractor.... I thought they went out of business.... I spoke to a sales guy there, told him what I was looking for (new tractor), and explained that I would be buying one in the next three days.... he said he would call me back that afternoon with a package price. No call back. I tried two more times the next day to get a price.... I'm still waiting.... that was three years ago. I have purchased 2 tractors in the meantime.....

Are you still contemplating a Branson purchase? Just wondering since your corral shows no Branson affiliation and you are over here posting on the Branson site, negative content no less.

Well, yes I was still looking at Branson, specifically the new 2515, up until a couple of weeks ago. I really don't bash any brand, especially Branson. They make some tough tractors. I have been looking at them for at least 4 years, almost bought one from Big Reds, but felt they were too far away at the time (now it wouldn't have mattered).

That's why I was in this thread / forum to begin with.... I still want to stay up on "the latest and greatest" about Branson. I solely expressed my opinion on a specific dealer that did not do me right when I was ready to purchase "immediately". I just had a bad taste in my mouth and had to rant. I am glad to read the positive comments about this particular dealer. It has probably put them back in contention when I start shopping again.

Well sir, I wish you well in your pursuit.

I looked at Branson two years ago. Did not buy mostly due to closest dealer at the time. I still think it would have been a good call. Now I still watch this thread due to that and the fact that my LS dealer that I got my tractor from is now selling Branson also. Both are good tractors and with equal dealer support, it would be hard to pick the best one.
