Masssey Ferguson ATV

I was reading today that in 2001 Arctic Cat produced ATV's for Massey Ferguson. I have not seen or heard of such a thing before today. Can anyone enlighten me on this subject?

You can get a new utv in Australia http://www.masseyferguson.com/EAPAC/AU/products/groundscare/groundscarerange/844.aspx

I think the MF atv was Artic Cat 400.

I think they were primarily for the UK market etc. If I recall correctly Arctic Cat was using Suzuki skid units to make their own ATV's, so in turn the MF model was a Suzuki based machine.

Not sure who is making them for them but everybody is correct.....it's an overseas thing, none either it be a four wheeler or a UTV are available in North America.
Another brilliant marketing plan by AGCO! I've talked with AGCO president of North America marketing Robert Crain on this subject and also building us farmers a Massey Ferguson articulated 4wd again but it was a waste of oxygen! They advertise listening to what the farmer needs and wants but it's all BS when it comes down to delivering! Robert was the least bit interested in listening to what I had to say on both subjects......very irritating!
Okay, thanks for letting me vent.....I feel much better! Lol

I would have bought a MF ATV, especially knowing it was made by an large company.

Deere did sell the Bombardier built Trail Buck in North America, but dropped them. If a JD ATV won't sell, a MF one doesn't have a hope in hell.

In the late 1960's - early 1970's they had a MF "Ski Whiz" snowmobile.

I would have bought a Massey UTV since I'm a die hard Massey guy but not available in North America......so I went with a deere gator instead.
Wasn't gonna pay out the nose to have a Massey shipped over from across the pond.....plus I think the gators look better away and have many more accessories available.
We map all our fields with deere guidance and deere apex programs so it was a smarter choice to go with the gator anyway.
