My post is fine. You forgot that I used the word only meaning that Kubota has been around far longer. Some people seem to think that Kubota is a recent phenomena in the USA and I am pointing out that their US history is far longer. They were already pushing on the domestic brands in the HP categories that they had offerings in decades ago. In the last 10 years they have expanded into the above 100 HP category and if not already in it they plan to be in the 200 plus HP category. Their purchase of brands such as Kverneland gives them a product line to support their dealers in terms of becoming stand alone operations. The long term plan is to get away from situations where they are represented by dealers that carry New Holland or Case as well as Kubota. The long term plan is not to be satisfied with the crumbs left over from those who did not purchase Case or New Holland. This is going to create problems at least here in New York as many Kubota dealers are also Case and/or New Holland dealers. Kubota is going to make these dealers choose between Kubota and whatever else a dealer may carry. Many may opt to go with Kubota to have a greener pasture so to speak in terms of market. There are many areas around here where large scale ag is dying but there are people with 10, 20, or more acres that want to run a small scale hobby farm. A dealer would be better off in a situation like that than attempting to peddle large tillage and harvesting equipment to customers that will not buy those products.

Today's Featured Article - Seeing an Old Friend - by Joe Evans. Dad had a concrete contracting business starting in 1960. One of his first pieces of equipment was a Ferguson TO-35 with a Davis loader. Dad replaced the TO-35 with a MF 202 Workbull, essentially an industrialized Ferguson 35 I am told. Dad bought the 202 new in 1962, and I recall quite clearly going to the dealer with him to sign for it.
