Comparison LS vs TYM

   / LS vs TYM #22  
So TYM sells more CUTs in the US than John Deere?

Not that TYM sells them, but more are sold that are BUILT by TYM because so many are sold under different brands.

As a side note, many of the New Holland tractors are built by LS. A lot of people don't realize there are far fewer tractor manufacturers than there are brands of tractors. There are a lot of rebranded ones. Even a lot of the JD CUTs weren't built by JD, they were built by Yanmar.

When you add in Mahindra and now RK, I could see that being very true.

Seriously, more than Deere? Those massive RK sales must have put them over the top. :)

More likely the Mahindra sales and only comparing under 60HP CUTs, not large agriculture or industrial machines. TYM builds the 2500, 2600, and Max series Mahindra tractors (and probably others too) which are among Mahindra's top sellers in this country.

So a portion of Mahindras (small) + TYM (tiny) + Branson (tiny) + RK (miniscule) = more US CUT sales than Deere? WOW!

So Zetor is a big player in the US CUT market? Adding them in = more US CUT sales than Deere?

Source for this claim?

Big? No, they just started selling them about a year ago.

Point is, add them all together and it's a massive amount of TYM and TYM built tractors out there.

I wouldn't be a bit surprised to hear that more of them are sold than deere compacts...

A tractor sold by one may be made by another one year and than another 5 years later.
But the color of the paint is what a lot of people look it.
Some NH are made by Ls, but Ls does not make all of NH. So who sold the tractor NH or LS?

The claim was made that TYM and TYM rebadged tractors accounts for a greater US market share of CUTs than Deere. That is a pretty bold claim. What is the source of that allegation?

TYM also builds some of the Zetor models too...SR

Are you sure? Zetor prides itself for using czech & german parts only, the czech machine industry is quite health & capable

I have tractor experience, mostly with older equipment and recently bought my first tractor( I do own a few excavators and rent many types of construction equipment) and it was a used 2014 60 hp TYM. My impressions so far are that it is a strongly built tractor with good capabilities and came with a bunch of nice features for 1/3 the cost of an equivalent JD or Kubota.

It reminds me of a standard 4wd heavy duty work truck- all the work stuff without the luxury. I feel like with oil and filter changes and regular greasing, it will be doin work for many years- and it has a Perkins diesel engine, used worldwide for decades in commercial applications.

I just wish it wasn't turning pink.

Wouldn't it be great if we actually knew what the sales figures for each market segment was per manufacture? Say under 60 horsepower with an alphabetical list of how many units were sold per year.? Then another list of each actual country of origin and percentage of parts by country of origin. Then we could settle a lot of these arguments by actual facts instead of pulling figures out of our *** holes?

As it is, I have no idea who sells more of what. Only vague ideas based on advertising that I see on TV.*

It would be a real job to put together who made each tractor sold. The engine comes from this company, the transmission from another, the sheet metal, the hyd., the FEL, etc. And who put it together. And just because one factory is making the one model today, does not mean they will make it next year. So the sales on one model may go to more than one company that made it.
Most are good companies, but I have worked for a good company that was making a lot of profit. I was still purchased and closed. The people buying it did not want the competition.

I would love to see any info you have that says it isn't true??

I'm not the one making the claim about TYM and TYM badged tractors selling more CUTs in the US than Deere.

Well, you seem to be disputing it.. So, I thought maybe you have something to show that it isn't true...

I love tractors in general, so I it's an interesting question...

I honestly don't know who sells the most, but TYM sure does build a lot of under 60hp tractors, so I'd sure say it's possible.
