[AT] Cub Cadet values

[Larry & Barb Dotson]

Bruce

Yanmar has been making compact diesel tractors for many years. They began 
importing them into the USA in the late 70's. My brother was a dealer for 
them and still has his tractor with loader and tiller. Somewhere around the 
mid 80's they signed an agreement with John Deere to supply all of their 
small compact diesel tractors. These enclude the 650, 750 850 and so on. The 
agreement forbid Yanmar from competing in the US although they continued to 
make their own line for other countries especially Japan. On Feb 8th 2007 
there was an anouncment that Yanmar and MTD formed a partnership for the new 
line to be called Cub Cadet Yanmar to be headquartered in Valley City Ohio. 
These compact Diesels are now available at the Cub Cadet dealers for 
tractors under 50 HP.
