Any other Branson tractor owners here ? Our new 2021 mini work horse…. Wicked grapple has also been ordered …
I have a 2019 Branson 3015R got about 210 hours on it. Very handy machines!! I have had no problems with mine and it has done everything I have asked of it. I love mine! I also have a grapple the MTL and it is a game changer. I Enjoy you new toy.. uh I mean tool!
Make or buy a ballast for it as quickly as you can. I used my box blade for a while, it works ok but not nearly heavy enough. I took 4 cinder blocks and filled them with concrete and they live on my box blade for added weight. Still not heavy enough. So I took a plastic 55 gallon barrel, welded a frame inside it and filled it with concrete it's probably 1200 lbs. It is heavy enough!
2 things drew me to this tractor…. 1: lift capacity 2: no electronics.. Old school… I’ve heard little tweek here, a bit of timing advance, a couple more rpm’s…. Make for more power ..
Not as popular as the orange and green tractor lines, but hopefully be around for a while. They do have a factory , import lot… headquarters down by Mr. Jeff there in Georgia. Now owned by TYM tractor.
Yep! Rome, GA. About an hour south of me. My dealer, about half way between me and Branson is one of their oldest dealers. I have gotten close to maxing
They've been in the us since 98, and around as a company since 1968. Looks like they have a facility in Oregon and Texas as well.
Nice looking tractor, Dave. I didn't know there was a factory in Rome, GA. You will like the grapple. I looked at the Wicked Grapples, but went with the MTL instead. Saved about $400 and got a set of forks in the deal, too.
I saved some good money on the MTL as well. Drove down to pick it up with a stump bucket. A bit heavier than the Wicked Grapple but considerably cheaper.
I wasn’t sure if I wanted a short or long tine… Everything Attachments won based on these facts: 1: they answered the phone when I called 2: they answered my questions without feeding me a line of bull… 3: free shipping
