I've been lurking here for many years, and am finally getting close to a new tractor purchase with a 4052R HST Cab model at the top of my list. Also looking at 2800M Massey's, but I'll save that for a different thread.
I know the final assembly location of the 4R series and others is in Augusta, GA; the engines are Yanmar from Japan; but where do the rest of the major parts come from? Are they US made loaders and castings? Or am I going to find China/India/Mexico all over the tractor?
When I go buy a new car or truck the window sticker tells me the domestic parts content and well as the origin of the engine and transmission. It doesn't seem as easy to find out for a tractor.
Thanks,
Chris
