Ranch Hand

[TractorData]

Does anyone have any experience with Ranch Hand brand tractors? The company in Washington, not the east coast Jinma dealer. Their site is Ranch Hand Tractors

I'm just trying to figure out what they are. LGs? Jinmas?

There American made, so they can't be Jinma or LG's. Would love to hear the real truth.

maybe Assembled in USA, but they sure do appear to have a LOT of Jinma technology and appearance.

Exactly. From their site...

"On our DXL4452 and DXL4452C Models, Only 35% or less of what you pay for the tractor goes to Southeast Asia (Japan, China, Korea)."

Now we know what their markup is.

I'd like to know what they are to make cross-matching parts easier. It seems like every guy who assembles crate tractors claims they're his own brand, and then no one can figure out how to find parts.

Here is the real truth. I spoke to josh and he gave me a story that would make you all laugh. First, the engine according to Josh is a YangDong, the same engine as the Yanmar John Deere uses, they just call it a Yanmar (No fooling), he said this seriously.

He said the trans is the same as a Massey and that they use many German components. Here is his rational. We are an American manufactured tractor because we bring in all these parts together. We assemble them here so they are American made. I questioned multiple times about origin and relation to China and he evaded the question over and over.

He likened it to Freightliner who is seen as American made but chassis is Canadian, engine somewhere else and non of the parts on Freightliner are really U.S. and because of Freightliner this is their justification for calling them American made. What a crock. This guy is as shady as they come. Buyer beware.

I could not believe what I heard.

Post this in the Chinese forum and I'll bet they can tell you.
