CCI said:All of a sudden we have new members joining TBN and their first posts are inside information on Farmtrac. It very well might prove out to be accurate and true information but it also could be a spin to try and keep consumer confidence up. I'd say by now Textron will have their hands full with the dealers. You don't slam the door in a dealers face and magically knock on his door in 2 weeks and say let's play ball.
Everyone can see what the dealers feel like because it's been posted already. I can not for the life of me understand why Farmtrac does not include the dealers intheir solution. If you make the dealers upset then how are they going to sell those 5000 tractors. Solid dealers insure customer confidence in a tractor.
I sure hope this situation could be worked out quickly but it does not seem anyone is motivated yet.
I totally agree that it is in Textron's best interest if they can get Farmtrac back up and running. But Textron has treated the dealers like the dealers were the problem not the management of Farmtrac.tommybr said:None of us, least of all myself , can claim to have a crystal ball and be able to predict the future about Farmtrac or anything else. I just think that if Textron wants to get any of their money back, they better be figuring out a way to keep Farmtrac going. This is just my opinion....based on some things being discussed.
