Not sure thats a smart marketing move, but just my .02 cents. If I say to someone I have an ASV and they are in the construction/forestry business they have a clue what I'm talking about...but if I say I have a Terex track loader they might think dozer, etc...ASV seems like a niche- marketed product...
speaking of marketing- I was shocked to see an ASV ad on my local ABC affiliate this evening during the 6pm news...was sponsored by the local dealer, MB tractor- even had a shot of a PT-100 with a mulcher on it wacking a 4-5 dbh beech tree...

Is it anything more than a name change? When we got married my wife changed her name but best I can tell it is still the same girl. Kinda like Hydro-Ax switching to Prentice. Nothing major changed...just paint. Unless they drop ASV brand completely.

I hope they ad washer fluid For the windsheild. My ASV could use a a wiper blade on the inside . The dust is just as bad on the inside.

Isn't ASV and Cat together? I wounder how that would work out. Terex sell undercarriages to Cat.

No Cat sold it's shares in ASV. Cat is also moving away from the ASV undercarriage and towards it's newly designed "bobcat looking" one. I like the new system. I would have originally liked a wider track but after watching and running one it works good.
I like the fact that they might change the color alone. Any color would reflect radiant head better than black. I painted the cab on mine yellow to help in direct sunlight.
