Jim,

Need some manufacturer names and model numbers to get a proper breakdown...

Also what area of the US did you purchase from?

What model Scorpion/Millennium is it?

The tractor is an Avenger t390, backhoe is a 765H bushhog, loader is a Star with quick tach bucket (possibly by Westendorf ?) made esp for the Avengers, Bushhog SQ720 cutter w/slip clutch, Bushhog 35-07 backblade, R4 tires. I am in south central MI. Just north of Jackson.

Just for comparison, I am in Southern Michigan and bought a 43 hp branson w/yanmar 4cyl. engine, branson loader, industrial tires, branson backhoe, frey blade for $20250.00.I was pretty impressed over all.

I did try to look into Bransons during my shopping but the website didn't show any dealers in my area. so as far as millenium vs Branson I couldn't compare. For the dollar on the units I could compare, the T390s
capabilities far exceeded the competitors.
Major factors in my decision were that I'm 15 minutes from my well respected dealer, less than an hour from
the national parts warehouse, some of the standard features were extras or not available on other tractors,
and all the parts/implements showed attention to detail and strength. Hopefully we both have many years of service.

Jim, I am just south of Jackson and If you are thinking of the same dealer that I am they are very nice, I was allowed to spend quite a long time on the tractor!

The frame on the T390 uses the engine block as part of it's structure, be very careful what you're doing with the loader, this is not a very sturdy tractor. Of course, I inherited this tractor with the property and it was already mis-used and broken, but the design is faulty.

Ranchergirl,
This thread is over 8 years old and I don't believe the original poster comes around anymore.
