SV: [AT] OT Lawn Tractor Mfg.

[Kessen, Mattias (Road SE)]

The Husqvarna's are assembled by Husqvarna The ones sold in Sweden are made
in Sweden. Husqvarna is one of the oldest companies beginning sometime in the
17th century with guns. They have made motorcycles and almost all kind of
small mechanical equipment. If I'm not wrong Magdalenas 30-06 is a Husqvarna.
I believe they're now owned by Electrolux. I read something about that they
will begin using Kohler and Kawasaki motors instead of Briggs and Stratton in
their mowers.

One of the guys I work with is purchsing a new riding mower. Actually he's 
looking for a Garden tractor which technically makes it a little more
versatile. 
So far he's narrowed his search to a Husquvarna and a Sears. He's been told 
that these 2 are mfg. by the same company. Does anyone know if this is true?
My 
first thought is that MTD must build them both but he claims that, in his 
research, the MTD name has never come up.

I tried to talk him into a small antique tractor (a Super A or CA with a 
mid-mount mower perhaps) that would be more versatile around his 34 acres but
I 
haven't convinced him...yet. 

Thanks,
Karl
