Asssment of Korean Tractor Manufacturers

[SCWOOD]

ha Ha! Don't see myself getting a pink tractor, anybody out there have one?

Have you seen a Mahindra after the paint fades! It is to close to pink for me.

I think an "autumn" color tractor would sell well. Make it sort of that coppery, rust color that you see more and more auto manufacturers use. Black wheels with the same rust color as the tractor around the rim perimeter I think would look super. I wonder if they don't use this color because people would call it "rust".

I like the idea. I had a Z06 that was Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic, otherwise known as DSOM with the Corvette crowd. Calling it "rust metallic" just wasn't catchy. Best color ever. Obviously the one on the left in the attachment.

How about silver... ? I think White Tractors were the last to use silver, of course they're now part of AGCO.

We probably should start a thread and come up with the best color combo for a new tractor brand. Another idea would a military look, drab green, tan or something along those lines. The silver Whites (sounds funny) were easy to tell apart from the rest of the red/orange/green brands for sure.

A non-metallic easy to touch up color would be good for a tractor.

That's another thing, enough of this 15.00 a can spray paint..

Agreed. Frankly, I couldn't care less about the name. As long as the tractor, value, and after sales support stack up then they could paint the darn thing fluro pink and call it Shirley for all I care.

I am in the process of painting my tractor pink and calling it Shirley. Please do not infringe the pending copy rights......:drink:

How about two-tone? White top, Orange below. Yellow top, Black below? Racing stripes? 69 Z28 color scheme. white w/orange stripes.

Well, sometimes you need to go fast and low, sometimes slow over rocks and such, sometimes moderately fast with the top down....One rig can't do it all. That was a couple of years ago, those all have new homes now and I bought a Jeep Rubicon 4dr for the fun off road stuff and outgrew the need for speed (sort of....), so the Corvettes have new homes as well. The Z06 was modified and was scary fast. Had fun with it for a couple of years and sold it before I got into trouble. The Unimog was incredibly capable, but 45 MPH on the road meant towing it places. Plus, no heated seats! I have a very, very kind and considerate wife.

I think I remember seeing some new tractors with chrome trim, headlight bezels. That's too much. It's sort of insulting thinking I'm going to buy a tractor because it has pretty headlights.

Someone could bring back the old Minneapolis Moline yellow. Or maybe pumpkin flesh yellow-orange.
