I knew the first time I laid eyes on the model tractor I bought that it was for me. Most dealers at that time were still accomodating and interested in their customers well being. I went to the 3 dealers nearest to home. #1 wasn't interested in a free delivery. I thought that was the very least they could do. #2 wanted "full retail". No break, no deal. #3 brought the tractor out to the farm even though I hadn't inked the deal yet. They let me use it for a couple days. Then they made good on a price quoted 2 months earlier in a casual conversation. This coming May 8th, that will be 36 years ago. I STILL do my trading with the same dealer. Only thing I'd do different today? I'd buy TWO MF150's instead of just the one. I got my moneys worth 10 times over.
