This is the ford vs. chevy vs. dodge debate! Ilike Miller blue and Ford blue oval. But another guy will like Lincoln. The major players all make good machines. The trick is getting the machine that fits your pocketbook and does the job you ask of it. Red, blue, yellow, purple or whatever color if you find the model that fits your way of doing things and it works then that is it. I own a miller mig and a miller tig/stick and don't have any plans of jumping brands anytime soon.
