A package deal on a tractor and implements can be a tempting purchase. It is sitting on the dealers lot as you drive by all loaded on the trailer ready to go. Tempting? The problem is that if you are not a well informed consumer and the dealer is dishonest, you could be buying something you will really regret. Here is one way to figure it out.

Since Bobcat and Kioti have the same manufacturer, this shouldn’t be a concern.
Yep a lot goes into buying a tractor it’s a very expensive and valuable tool!
I really wish leaf blowers weren't so horribly loud.
You definitely need ear protection
I'm positive on a negative but I'm a little negative on the positive
Thanks I learned a lot, I've put in lots of cheap ones. No more!
The whole country was built off people thinking they deserved everything. Nothing new under the sun, and it's definitely not a product of participation trophies.
This entitled attitude did not exist when I was young..
So sooooo very true, succinctly stated facts that most ppl don’t want to hear !
Seen the price of ANYthing lately? Oh.. my BBQ grill cleaned itself last week. 🔥
That emoji reminds me of charbroil's logo.
Not to mention, the help prevent dirt, debris, dauber nests etc inside the receptacle, impeding solid connections. Actually thought that was brilliant at the beginning of the video. I hadn't thought of that as a good reason to use those receptacles in my barn. Thanks.
I trust you are doing well. Appreciate this video! Tim in northern TN
Good to hear from you. Getting on but low energy.
Good to see you posting. How are lumber prices?
Very little change.
tamper resistant outlet keeping 2 year olds safe from themselves. the 2nd amendment keeping us safe from a bad government.
Besides all the other methods in comments I read where old timers drill a hole a few inches above ground level at a downward angle half way into the post. It’s this hole they pour turpentine and lindseed oil into it and plug the hole every few months.
Hadn't heard that one
They are monopoly protectors $ price gouging and profiteering $
At 74 years of age, I still split around 2 cords a year for my typical winter use. I have both this 10 ton manual unit and the 5 ton electric from HF. The electric is mounted on a leftover stand from my woodworking shop. The manual I use just like you do, but I only use it to break up rounds that are too heavy for me to lift readily. Once broken in half, I can easily pick up each half and finish it on the electric. I paid $100 bucks for mine back when they had 20% discount coupons, so paid $80 plus tax. I have been using this system for the past 15 years and have saved my back a lot of wear and tear! When I do the finish splits, I toss them in a 2 wheel wheelbarrow and take them and stack them, no more bending over! HA HA Work smarter, not harder as you get older!
Very silly philosophy….
In house I think is a great thing. They realized they have a great chance to capitalize on the compact tractor market and make those tractors with the bobcat quality we all expect. Their mowers are such high quality and can’t wait to see what they eventually do with their compact tractors. Buying Steiner and competing with ventrac is also a very smart move.
# 11 buy some goats and fencing, it's safer
Plastic vs.metal,doesn't matter as long as the tractor performs.
I've had john deere for 25 years,no complaints at all...period.
Aceton works amazing too. Just make sure to clean the car afterwards. It can mess up the paint when you leave it too long.
Bought a new Bobcat CT4050HST a couple of months ago and it is a beast, I love it.
Great insight shared here. I wish I had found this video a year ago as I arrived at many of the same solutions albeit at a major time cost researching and planning (not an electrician). Good work and thanks for sharing!
As a proud owner of a 2023 Branson 2610h, I'm 100% biased. But you're 100% correct! lol! They should've kept both names and product lines separate. It can surely only lead to more profit... and better quality control, etc., as well. If anything, drop the TYM name! lol! 😂
I absolutely love my 2021 Branson 2505h that has only 267hrs on it at this time, but it has developed a leaky seal near the wheel on the left side of the front axle. My bumper to bumper warranty has expired, so I thought my drive train warranty would cover it, but my dealer says it doesn't. Yet the drive train warranty clearly states that anything "bathed in oil" is covered. I've contacted TYM though their website a few weeks ago, and I've yet to hear back from them. My leak is still there, and it seems as though I'm being abandoned and ghosted by TYM. So I'm not at all happy with TYM at this point! Is a front axle not part of the drive train? I say, hell ya it is!
Hope you get some satisfaction
@@CountryCraziness Hi thanks, but I got a final NO yesterday. So I had to order and pay for the seal, and now I have to do it myself. Effin BS!
That sucks.
And Washington says inflation is non-existent. That’s bullshit. Good to see you back
Good to see you back giving out some good info as always.
Thank you for posting Paul. Indeed BS pricing. I am eye ball deep build our ICF home and shop. Take care and be well my friend. Good to see you posting. 👍👍
Maybe we could can make a video on your project
Finally, a man that calls it like it is. No bullshlt!
This is third world- limited competition
Bldg materials across the board way up. And to think Powell wants to lower interest rates. I believe we are experiencing hyperinflation.
Love the research and compassion! Thanks it is all BS
I was wondering where you have been; glad to see you back on air and pray you are well. “Keep on Keeping on!” Tim in northern TN
Great to see you back!!
Just bought a new CT2040 with backhoe, loader and grappler today. Full send!
For the price difference, you can use romex and afford to insulate and finish the interior properly. Romex is flexible as it costs next to nothing to install extra wires or gauge up.
I have a SRH 9800 and a SRX8400, love them.
The dealer will do their best to sell you a tractor that they have in stock even if it does not suit your requirements.
I see that this video was made 2 years ago before inflation was really being felt. Here are a few of my thoughts, tell me if I'm mistaken on anything: Tractors are one product that hold their value incredibly well (very little depreciation), especially for brands like John Deere or Kubota. After 84 months you could possibly sell the tractor for not much less than your original sticker price. So your payments are essentially deposits into a savings account. Regarding inflation, your original payment will essentially continue to decrease as dollars get smaller (hopefully your income will adjust for inflation thus increasing your income). 0% interest is becoming a much rarer offering as interest rates on things like housing, credit cards, etc. are skyrocketing. It just seems to me that if you can grab a 0% loan on a tractor it would be a good thing even if you had the cash on hand to pay outright.
New tractor sales have slowed, so the chance of finding a dealer willing to bargain is better than previous years. That said, prices for used are dropping. There are 0% programs and cash back offers. Pick the right tractor for your needs, and it will last for generations so resale doesn't way heavily on my mind. Keep in mind a person's credit rating bears heavily on being approved for 0%.]
Can I just order directly from them, even a small amount?
I believe they will sell direct, but have no idea of qty
Thanks!
No problem!
My light keeps flashing- i don’t think it works right.
You could be right. What does the manual say?
I always wrap my Fence Post with Hefty Plastic Bags works like a dream
Either one is not cheap!!
You guys talk guys like me into buying a Branson, which I did in 2017, and now I can't find parts for it. The only dealer in driving distance of me is a liar and won't honor the warranty so I certainly won't be giving him anymore business. It;s a shame that I can get parts for a 70 year old tractor but not my 7 year old tractor.
Branson tractors are the same as bad boy are essentially the same as RK or essentially the same as TYM you should have zero problem finding parts
39k today, just materials.
Im trying to fig out how much to buy trees for, and sell boards/ beams for. Pine. Red n White Oaks. Black Walnut. Cherry. Etc.
Thanks for putting this together. I’ve watched several videos featuring Neil (Messick’s). They seem like good people to work with. Saving a few bucks on a purchase is good, but having the right, knowledgeable dealer is great. If you own your tractor for 10 years, you’ll be seeing that good - or great - dealer a fair bit. From personal experience, when it comes to warranty issues (EVERY color tractor & make of truck has them), the “right” dealer makes THE difference.
Whats about flex seal
We have the SRH9800 and SRX8400, we love them. Great tractors.
