Yep. You got that right.

My first tractor was a new 2005 Kubota B7510HST that I bought in May05 from an established Kubota dealer about 40 miles away. Thought I made the right choice: CUT manufacturer with the largest market share, long-time dealer relatively close by. In Jan06 that dealer closed his doors with no advance warning after more than 30 years in the business.

Unless you have inside info, you don't know whether or how long your dealer is going to be around.
