I have to say, most of the original women from Dallas aged terribly......

I think there should be some brand fans and loyalty if a brand really, really does you well. Just a thought.

I agree, I have had several brands in the past and had the best luck with Deere. Case was my second choice. That doesn't mean that other brands are not good either as it seems there are lots of good machine out there today.

Good luck to the OP. I'm sure it will all be fixed in the end. I can most certainly understand your frustration. Please continue to keep us posted. I wish there were more dealers like Daves Tractor, especially on the East coast!

So we can assume that once you get this up and running there will be a "nice" low hour Mahindra gracing the pages of the local Craigs List

Your John deere dealer might be great but NOT all JD dealers are.Your general comment that John deere dealers stand behind there customers is lame do some research.Maybe YOU just don,t get it?Some folks are just stupid brand loyal and have more $$ than brains.As you can see I buy what fits my needs.Research is your friend..........

I agree that Research is your friend & a great dealer is hard to come by & a huge plus when you have one. We all must have more $$ than sense, or we'd be living in the city & not worrying about what's going to break next. Murphy's Law, if you need it, it will break.

And at the worse time.

With so many brands making good tractors in the cut and scut category, customer service could be a big thing that sets them apart so I personally like hearing the good as well as the bad.

Cats great customer service has been talked about on this thread. Cat does have competition but most major construction jobs don't reflect that.

Here's the proof. Mahindra is 10 time's better tractor than John Deere, Just get on and go, and come's with a 5 year no BS power train warranty, they just have to work on their customer service department.

*Update*

If we could stay away from brand wars that would be great.

On Friday I was told by my "contact" that someone would call by end of the day, never happened.

I left another message for corporate in Huston, haven heard from her since August 29th.

Dealer hasn't called, I think they just don't know what to do.

What a worthless company.
