Why Branson over Others ?

[Kentuckyfarmer]

I've had mine for three years now and I am tickled to death with it. Grew up on a dairy farm in Minnesota and we farmed over 400 acres and I've drove lots, green, orange and red. Older ones were built to last forever so really no comparison but I have always had what I call hobbie farm and when I wanted a new tractor I decided I ate enough bugs, dust and hay chaff and wanted a cab. Branson beat all in price and the thought of mechanical instead of computer controlled which locks you into a dealer hook line and sinker is one of the reasons for the Branson in my barn. Some of the complaints with warranty is (my thoughts) is most likely dummies thinking these smaller tractors are bull dozers and beat them to death. Previous was mentioned about front axle breaking three times. You know the first time I break something I learn not to do it again, the second time I am a idiot, the third time it's time to move on and do something else. Makes you wonder what they were doing to break them. It all goes to how you treat it and take care of the machine. They are built tuff, they run good, it's the most comfortable tractor I have operated (old stuff with open station, had XT190 Allis Chalmers with cab but no heat or air). I'm 63 and I do all my own maintenance and my wrenches fit it so when things go wrong it will be me that fixes it. In my book you can't go wrong.

Here is a video of a Swedish dealer showing the 25 series Branson.

You can see how the engine looks without the DPF and also, you can see the new style vent on the front diff.

This looks very close to my 4225CH except mine has two adjustable lower 3 pt hitch arms instead of one and mine has a cruise control button next to the hazard button. And obviously, mine has the dpf filter .
