Has a few interesting charts.
Note that these do not appear to be in "constant dollars".
I'm in shock... Kubota BX pricing

Great for some, not so much so for others.Oh stop complaining and “gaslighting”. The economy is GREAT!
Personally, I am more concerned with divisive politics that are dividing groups of people into extremes and cliques of people unable to hear anything but their own "echo chamber" and that of their friends in the same group.
Back to Kubota prices, I'm out of the orange tractor market due to their pricing policies and inability to deliver the tractor I tried to buy pre-COVID. Today, I bleed red, not orange! Ditto for big Green!

That's a little large for my needs, personally.
Is AGCO still selling tractors in their orange livery? A fellow in town here that's spent my entire living memory haying with an old Allis Chalmers, and this year he finally supplanted it. Now he's got a nice orange AGCO that I'd judge from a distance to be right around 50 horsepower. I'd also guess it's about 20 years old, but I don't know enough about them.
They're not a common sight around here. On a related note, the local Massey dealer has a used Challenger in stock. Physically it looks to be around 80-100 horsepower, but again that's a guess, with a cab and loader. It's because of this forum I noticed it, lol. I'd never have given any thought to a yellow Massey Ferguson in the past lol.

AGCO branded stopped about 10 years ago.That's a little large for my needs, personally.

Its all Massey, Fendt & Valtra.
I thought the AGCO & Challenger tractors were some of the best ever pre-emissions tractors.
A lot of us who know the lineup realize there was VERY little difference between a Massey, a Challenger and an AGCO. But what was cool was with Massey, you mostly would get a SISU diesel.
With Challenger, you got a little different cab roof and got a CAT/Perkins diesel.
With AGCO, you got a Massey painted orange with either a 5.9L, 6.7L, or an 8.3L Cummins. That was really cool having a Cummins option.
Later model AGCO’s were switched over to SISU. A very tough diesel.
There are a few more variants, but that’s how about 90% were configured.
