I found this quote on another thread here from Messick Equipment and he wrote " I know this is beat to death here, but a good dealer is what makes the brand. None of these companies are anything without the dealerships backing them up. If your local Deere guys have crappy attitudes things would probably be very different in your area. Heck, I don't sell Deere, but if thats how your local dealers are than whats what you should be buying. No tractor is worth buying from anyone who can't back it up, not matter how good a value is maybe."

I think that is a very profound statement and I wanted to share it on this Farmtrac trouble thread. That statement says it all. I hope that the floor plan companies and all the other tractor manufacturers read that. Don't just read the words. But listen to it when you say it. If you have no dealers-you have no product to sell. The product is not worth the money it took to assembly that unit. Dealers are a very, very vital role in selling products. Obvioulsy or the floorplan companies and manufacturers would just sell the product direct! YOU NEED THE DEALERS!
