How to put this.
If I were one of the huge modern farmers, like the one our family farm is leased to, I would not dream of letting family or pride enter into where I purchased my equipment. The dealer with the best price and service thumps all else. Too much money is at stake to be that petty. With the amount of purchasing they do service is even secondary as they tend to do most of that in house.
There is no comparison to guys buying estate tractors or the hobby farmer.
