Does the Branson Drink fuel by chance? It holds over three times the amount of fuel as the open station M6060. If google is correct diesel weighs 7 pounds a gallon. Thats an extra 406 pounds when full. My F350 holds 34 gallons of fuel . Just seems like a lot to me.

Additional weight in a tractor is most always a good thing!

yes that data sheet had a few little errors I do believe.

yeah i think it is 15 gallon, doesnt look any bigger - nice low placement.

I wish some of the dealers would post actual flyers and tech specs and correct details, i assume the dealers really have all this info somewhere?
the branson website is not great, there is no way to line up side by side the loaders or back hoes or tractors - site is always far behind and full of oddities.. e.g. at this time the only "attachment" for the 5835R is a "BL90". Not sure how you attach a subcompact to it, put in the loader bucket perhaps... for now it seems forums is the place where you see those working for dealers posting news first, and youtube sometimes

Branson really needs to keep their web site up to date. They don't seem to understand that most people shop there first.

Dave's Tractor (the dealer I got my Branson from) has a pretty good web site for a moderate sized dealer.

The 5835 and the 35 series are new to the US and I think fairly new world wide. There's probably not a lot of people who have them.

thank you everyone for the input and feedback. I have decided on going with the 5835R, I did not end up really trying many other ones, looked around some, kicked some tires and visually looked at a few lots, but in the end found this to be great value and little negative to say, it may be fairly new but it seems that the 7845 "big brother" it was based a lot on have mostly good things said as well. I really like the local dealer I found also, Bly Farm in PA. It is on order now, on a boat i suspect, and will come new from Georgia in a few weeks - i'll post some pictures in the spring.

And yes Daves Tractor site looks like the most up to date i have seen of any of them - unfair to Dave probably unless living in that area; i would send people there than to Branson site for looking at details :)

Congratulations!
I am not considering any new tractor, but if I were, Branson would be my first look.
There seem to be only positive reports for Branson here on TBN.
Now......just how do you plan to contain your anticipation, for x number of weeks?
