| Re: Tractor canopies Care to explain what you are getting at? A search on 'canopies' turns up "0" found (for me).
Thanks. |

| Re: Tractor canopies I found it. Thanks for the heads up, but possibly "Bernie" is busy making canopies, due to the interest created. I ordered a CrocTop for my JD gator, and it took longer than I expected too. But when you have a good product, you run the risk of being noticed, and being in high demand. Such terrible luck to have, but then bad luck is better than no luck at all. |

| Re: Another low cost alternative I wouldn't buy Chinese, because they shoot down our planes. And true, some things Chinese can't be avoided easily. Something like this can. And I didn't mean to offend you by this note. |

I can agree with what you have said but, it seems that he would at least answer my emails instead of just ignoring me..
After all.... I paid him for the canoy August 6, 2001..
I guess we will wait and see ???
Thanks for your response,
Bill... |

| Re: Tractor canopies Bill, for your info, I bought a very nice canopy from Firebird fiberglass (search on that name to locate the website) for my 4100 Deere. Since they are manufactured in Arizona, I traveled (200 miles) to the factory to pick one up. I found one with a slight paint blemish for 40% off. Since, I've been to the factory, I can vouch that they are a legitimate company. Anyone who is looking should check out their website. |

| Re: Tractor canopies What's the going price for the Firebird canopies. The Web site doesn't speak to any pricing.

| Re: Tractor canopies Seems to me I paid around $500,I will have to look to make sure,I also ordered an extra piece that goes inside the canopy(ceiling?part of the price I paid) that has a cutout for a radio and has a cigarette lighter,which would be good for electrical things etc. |

| Re: Tractor canopies Should have asked this earlier, how is it holding up.
I have low branches in some areas and wonder how it fairs.
