"I bought this tractor the same year I bought this 200 acre property. I used it like a bulldozer. What I did to this tractor is a crime in all 50 states. Aside from some chintzy controls, linkages, etc, this tractor has been an absolute beast. It has had relatively few problems so far. It is a heavy, sure footed and powerful tractor, more stable than my Kubota. For a normal guy using this tractor as a normal guy should, it should be a twenty year machine or better. I bought it from Barry Clagg, OKC. Claggs are amazing before and after the sale. I can't say enough about them. I am buying a 4520R from them to replace this one, more for tax reasons than any other. I sold it today to a guy who was thrilled to get her. "

"I bought it as a demo with 14 hours on it, put a Woods loader on her and worked the snot out of it. It moved tons of dirt, plowed snow, pulled trees for firewood every year and a 9-foot haybine, and baler for 35 acres every year. It has never let me down yet. The only thing I have done is oil and filters. "

"I considered several different brands at the time, but the Branson was affordable and had the features I needed. "

"I have a 2008 3820 Branson tractor with 415 hrs and the clutch pack is leaking by there are no dealer in this area anymore, and Branson will help on phone but will not help with cost. The tractor has been in shop for two months. The warrant went out in April. I would not buy another Branson tractor. A clutch pack should last much longer. The tractor has not been misused. Branson is having clutch pack problems with other models also. I asked for some help due to the low hours they refused. Very disappointed with Branson. Looks good but you are on your own when you buy a Branson. L.J. Bridge City, TX."

"My 2004 Branson 3820 has been a true blessing to me for the last 7 years. We built a new house way off of the road (1300 feet) and I bought the Branson shortly after we bought the lot. It has been used to dig out several hundred stumps, as well as a 4-ft trench from the road to the house. I worked this tractor extremely hard the first year or two, but now use it for moving manure piles, and smaller jobs. I have also loaned it out to family members and friends who live close by. Maintenance-wise, the only problem that I had was the gear shift on the right was stuck in 2nd. It was an easy fix as the gearing was simply jammed."

"Bought the tractor second hand, all in all pretty good shape, does a great job around our 13 acres in the NW Georgia Mountains, this winter will be a testing period for the tractor. But if you get one with low hours and decent condition you can't go wrong."
