Anyone heard of a YanDeere ?

Thats what this guy told me I bought when Discussing recent tractor purchases. He called it a YanDeere...meaning a Yanmar dressed in green and yellow paint. I'm not so sure if the little X744 of mine with the Yanmar engine and the TuffTorq/Kanzaki/Yanmar tranny qualifies as a YanDeere since it is a genuine Horicon Works product...but it got me thinking.

Yanmar has made ALOT of products for John Deere, It sounds like a name he made up to me.

He definitely made it up. I thought it was kind of funny. But it was the first time I had heard it so I figured I'd pass it along to see if anyone else has heard the term.
