Winches happy massey's

Had my share to, just yesterday I wasnt paying attention while backing my tractor in the garage and the front end loader took out the door 2x4

Lots of Massey's out there-I see them all the time but I have no idea what the market share is? There are lots of CASE IH owners and you dont see many posts there, as I inderstand it CASE IH is one of the biggest manufacturers out there.

I think John Deer way surpass Kubota in sales but again, for some reason, kubota has more posts?

You have obviously never met our Massey; nothing but trouble sine the day it was bought.

Sorry to hear that, I have read a few posts of unhappy owners of all makes and models, as I'm sure you have. Too bad you've recently purchased a new tractor, might have been worth looking at a MF.

I'm so happy with mine, that I sold one for my dealer last week.

I don't know, would be interesting to see actual numbers of all makes, regardless of year of manufacture, that are still out there. I wouldn't be surprised to see the numbers surpass what you might think.

Too bad there is not a way to tally them all up here on TBN. I love my Massey but also know that there is not as many dealers as there once was here in my area. The one that is still within 60 miles does not keep any tractors on the lot

I think there is probably a lemon in every color. It sure makes it hard on the owner of the lemon.

Yep, we even have a bad John Deere too. :laughing:

I wouldn't buy anything from our local MF dealer, so a Massey was never under consideration.

Agreed, everyone makes a lemon now and then, whether ours is one I don't know. My brother is a mechanic and doesn't mind working on stuff, so it is now under his care. When it is running right, you can't beat it; lots of power and very stable on slopes.

I've been around a few Massey,s in my life and never any trouble. But they have always been smaller tractors too. My new one gave me a little trouble but is doing great now. It's still too new to get the whole picture. I guess you are getting very dry there again huh? We had that great rain 10 days or so but nutin but dry and hot now. I'm sure it isn't any different there

We have been designated as being in an "extreme drought" condition and the crops are burning up. I don't know if some farmers will have enough crop to harvest. We cash rent most of our land and really feel sorry for the family who farms it. We do a "share" on mom's 60 acres, but it is irrigated, so they should be OK.
