I know I go on about Ferguson tractors, but then it is all myself and many other British Farmers know....We were reared on a diet of nearly wall to wall Ferguson tractors. On another forum I visit one of the ex MF guys has just posted some interesting figures of UK tractor sales in 1952, just before Ferguson joined with Massey Harris.............. Total tractors sold= 33188........... Ferguson TE20 sales= 17335.......... Massey Harris sales= 68 17,335 Fergusons sold left every other tractor brand to sell 15,853 tractors....So Fergson sold well over half of the tractors in the UK that year.......But I still don't know why he sold to Massey Harris?????
