ELIZABETHTOWN, Pa., March 1, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- After 64 years of service to the Carlisle area, Peterman Power Equipment starts a new chapter on March 1 by joining the Messick's family of dealerships. The full-line Kubota dealership, located at 225 York Road in Carlisle, becomes the fifth Central Pennsylvania location for Messick's, the family-owned agricultural, construction and lawn and garden equipment dealer group.

Today the Carlisle store sells eXmark, Snapper, Snapper Pro, Simplicity, Stihl and Troybilt tillers in addition to the full line of Kubota products including riding lawn mowers, compact and agricultural tractors, and construction equipment.
