Yep, Challenger AG eguipment has really been taking off here, the state uses them to mow their roadsides, the farmers have started to buy them, and they are taking off and selling better than the Agco brand tractors that look identical to them. I was trying to figure out why this is?, besides the fact that a very large Caterpillar dealer has been taking them around to all the shows and giving demos, every pull they bring a track tractor to "show off" it's incredible pulling power, they offer them to shows to use them as pull back tractors, scraper tractors and stuff like that, so they are getting lots of good publicity. I don't know if the fact that they have Caterpillar engines in them instead of Agco engines influences sales much, maybe it's the yellow paint instead of the bright orange and the elegant Challenger script on the sides of the hood. Perhaps it's their slogan "We're up to the Challenge" that has a slight influence as well. Anyways, you add it all up and it all comes down to a brand that really seems to be taking off.
