I checled for previous threads on this, but they were all dated Years ago, so I thought I'd start a new topic / thread.
I don't mean to scrape the scab off an old wound, but I am really interested in the short term run of the Cabelas tractors. Was there quality in the tractor, or were they simply re-branding a generic tractor suppliers' unit in an effort to expand the Cabelas line ?
Several Years ago, when I was researching tractors for a purchase, I saw an ad for these Cabelas tractors and I was intrigued. I was in a Business Administration MARKETING program, and it caught my attention.
It was a good name brand, but tractors seemed to me, to be a misfit. I don't even know if they were available in Canada ? Certainly none of the area dealers carried this line, so I never saw a Cabelas tractor up close and personal. For me it was Intrigue rather than Interest.
I checked them out, and requested a brochure, but by the time I made the Kubota purchase, Cabelas were no where to be seen.
What kind of experience did buyers get ?
Are any of those Cabelas tractors still out there?
Are they useful, or a part of tractor history, and for collectors value only ?
Manufactured in Korea
I'm still curious
