We will add new brand categories as different brands start to show interest. If you have a brand that you would like to see added to our list of forums please let us know and we will get it added.

How about AMF, it could go with massey on some, but others are not related, thanks, shawn

[inlinecumminspower]

What about Troy-Bilt? Or are they considered MTD's? I know several people just in the little town I live in with Troy-Bilts.. I would really like to see Troy-Bilts own section. Thank you.

How about scag? I am starting to see a bunch of retired ones surfacing around here, including the one in my shed.

Simplicity Saver,


Glad to have you with us.

Honestly, I think we should thin out some of the ones we have. Just seems like we have a lot and that could be minimized to some extent. Or categorized differently. It is beginning to look cluttered already.

Springfield would be good, but it doesn't need its own section, just tack it onto "Wheel Horse / Toro" section. I have found that the implements were basicly slot hitch like the WHs or even interchangable on the mounts (I have a WH RJ series snow blade on a Springfieild snow plow mount right now lol). Plus Springfield was bought out by Toro, so a lot in common with those two brands. Only bad thing is they had a Montgomery Wards version too, so they can end up over there too on occassion, but thats hardly a problem, most of us click "New Posts" anyways lol.

Homelite/Simplicity unless the Homelite was one of the Allis Chalmers versions. That wasn't much help was it.

I am not knowledgeable enough with he Homelite / Simpicitys to know how we can group them. I am open for suggestions though.

how about murray GTs. There are not many around.

How about GTTalk adding a new, ficticious garden tractor brand called "My Dream Tractor" or "The Ideal Garden Tractor"...?

This would be a permanent GTtalk brand site where members could discuss and list what their ideal garden tractor would have. In effect this would become an extended "expert focus group" where everyones best ideas come forth. All of their good ideas could then be summarized and permanently placed here on site for future reference. I know each member has at least a dozen things they would like to see or change on their own tractors. I can hardly wait to hear all of their great suggestions!

If I were a garden tractor manufacturer reading this I'd already be drooling in anticipation of hearing and learning all of the great ideas to put into their next new tractor .

For instance, "my ideal garden tractor would have:

1) Easy to access and read fluid checkpoints"
2) Easy to access fluid refill and drainage areas.

Just dreamin...

Can we see about: Briggs & Stratton Lawn Tractor? Is there a thing?

We just got a few acres, and a couple lawn tractors for the girls to haul hay and such with. One is an older tractor that has a 7hp Briggs. The fellow who sold it said it was a Briggs and Stratton tractor. I found this site while looking for a manual.

[trowel]

briggs and stratton never made a tractor, only engines as far as i know unless there is a rare one out there,
how about small air cooled military gas engines, im answering questions regarding those engines over at smokstak but it's useally in the MEP thread or in the UNKNOWN thread,

[valley ranch]

Thanks, I wonder? Let me do some checking.

[valley ranch]

I'll get some pictures, someone will recognize it. Glad to find this site.
