Why would they sue? Another manufacturer making false claims for decades could seriously affect Ford sales. The Banner lane MF factory in the UK was the largest tractor factory in the world until it was closed several years ago. I think the number of tractors just from that factory was something like 3.2 million units. World wide MF has produced the largest number of tractors. In the early 80's it was over 25% more than it's nearest competitor which I believe was Ford which was a fair bit ahead of third place. The big majority of MF tractors sold were lower HP models but the sales were mostly attributed to the superb performance of the 135, the most popular model. Maybe the MF tractors were lower priced but you got a lot of bang for your buck. The best 3 pt. hitch ever designed for one thing. The original Ferguson 35 is the most copied tractor in the world. There's still copies of it being built. You say 135's sold because of the lower price. Didn't the Fordsons sell because of low price as well? And they are generally regarded as less than desirable for a working tractor unlike a 135. Dave
