I'm not saying every dealer should have a warehouse to host their implements. It's not practical. However, personally I would feel I had a better chance to sell something that looked as new as it is rather than looking like it's been used for a year. Cars sit outside but they are cared for, washed, waxed etc.. I just feel a simple tarp could help. I'm a consumer not a dealer and I'm telling you I wouldn't buy an expensive piece of equipment that looked like that.
