Man no wonder guys get aggravated on these forums.

I thought it was called "the war of northern aggression"

"that recent unpleasantness with the north"

Why are so many tractors made/assembled in Georgia?
It seems that any tractor manufacturer I read about is there!

Kubota, Deere and Branson; that qualifies as a cluster.

I don't understand your aggravation. It seems to me that "business clustering" (Business cluster - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia) offers a possible answer for you initial question.

So then maybe the answer should have read: "its a business cluster... That's why!"

Has BMW opened a new plant or are you thinking of the current plant in Spartanburg, SC? I have read that BMW is thinking about adding an engine plant in the US or Mexico.

Perhaps that was it, it had though it was in Savanna, but I very well might be wring.

If you expect fully-developed responses in every post, you are going to remain aggravated/frustrated.

AGCO (Massey Ferguson, etc) headquarters is in Duluth, GA, but their U.S. plants are in Kansas and Minnesota.

CNH was doing compacts in GA, although I'm unsure if that's continued.

...The north had all the foundries...

Things would have turned out a lot different if the South would have been able to produce some cannons...!

More men to shoot them would have been a big help as well
