Lisa, I am sorry I missed this thread. I, along with many others knew Vince, and was shocked by his sudden demise. Vince was a relatively new dealer, that was doing all the right things to keep his customers happy. You were not missled by Vince, he was genuine. If he was still here, you would have your tractor and be happy with the service from him.
His wife, posted awhile ago on the CTOA board, looking for help. I had thought that a couple of dealers were trying to help piece the import puzzle together. They were only married for less than a year, and doubt she knew much about his tractor business. I am sure she is over her head with this, along with his farm and other issues.
I would assume that this is a full container, or at the minimum a 20' container. There is probably many issues about getting those tractors, and doubt that you will be able to drive there and just pick it up.
If you are able to get the tractor, please contact me and I will do everything in my power to help you get the tractor assembled properly. Also, willing to help anyone else that had tractors on that load, but are concerned about assembly. It is only a small token that I can return for Vince's friendship.
