Guess I'll have to find where the Democrat button on the voting machine is. I will post the contact information for Senator Christopher "Kit" Bond on this site as soon as I can. There may be a lot of "Not Even Zero" customers wanting to make a campaign contribution to Senator Christopher "Kit" Bond's next election!

Please tell them how pleased you are that they couldn't find wrong doing in the not even zero financing. Also tell them you have a campaign contribution scheme that might interest them based on something from Farmtrac: "Not even Zero Contribution". That they will understand!

It is a quote from the late Welsh poet Dylan Thomas -- a beligerant refusal to go quietly.

Think before you speak. It's illegal to talk about campaign contributions and ask for government action to benefit you personally, in the same conversation.

I wrote no LTZ contracts and purchased no LTZ tractors. Sorry my interest is in helping those that did. Not myself.

OK Escorts and Textron, in regards to the LTZ customers. Know one is stopping you from making good on your contracts! Everyone wants good press. Well then earn it. Yes it is just that simple.
Case (an unpaid LTZ customer)

PS The press could still get much worse....much, much worse.

Case you are hitting on all 6 now, you got that one right. Textron and Escorts remind me of a couple of stubborn old mules. now you younger folks may not know what I'm talking about, but the older heads will get it,I've followed the south end of a northbound mule more times than I care to remember. Now mules were useful creatures IF you could get their attention on the job at hand, but every now and then in order to get that attention, you had to properly apply a singletree to that area directly between their eyes.Well, that singletree for us is the news media,let us digilently apply it to these muleheaded adversaries and see if it still works.------Taxpayer

Case,

Your post is a bullseye!

I can't imagine how the three entities believe they're worthy of anything but being piled onto in the media. Their *actions* to screw retailers warrant every scathing remark they receive -- and then some.

And yes... it could get worse.
Actions are being taken to make that happen.

Stiff actions needed for a stiff situation, eh Taxpayer? Agreed.

Stiff action is the only thing these folks will respond to. Textron, Escorts and FNA have demonstrated that civility does not do anything but continue to get retailers abused.

C'mon pacifists and fence sitters:
- contact SESS and get listed on the dealer list
- share your information with us on the TBN.com (here!)
- join the "dealer only" site (retailers only qualify)
- talk to us about more details on how to attract media and legislative attention to this situation

Pacifists and fence sitters...
It's time to act!
Hit those corporate mules between the eyes with your actions -- now!

If only the national press would take the beginings of this and run with it. If the press would use their talents the bottome of this black hole would be lit like a Christmas Tree. At least it is a start of public exposure. Thanks SESS
