For clarity's sake. Rural King stores are not dealerships. They are retail farm supply stores founded and still run by a farmer family 60 years ago. There are 113 locations and growing, 60 now carry RK Tractors, all owned by Rural King. My job, and that of the others that came from the Ag Equipment industry is to blend the best of retail with that of traditional tractor dealerships to make RK Tractors a successful and sustainable tractor brand. Quality tractors, offered at great prices and the parts & service infrastructure to take care of customer equipment. It is a different business model from the long-standing OEM/Independent Dealer network. Some think we will fail, but we think we will be around in 30 years and longer, that's why we are here now. Hopefully are presence on the forum and transparency about our business already separates us a bit. We know we have lots to do and can certainly improve, but none of us would be working every day to grow this business responsibly if we didn't think this was the last and best job we would ever have.

Good stuff. I'm on the bandwagon of support. We always benefit from versatility.

I know this is off topic, but.....
I hope someone at RK realizes that the Fort Wayne store needs some level of professionalism instilled in it.

I rarely go there any longer, and I drive right by it when I go to town.

Instead of driving 10 miles to it, I drive 30 some miles out of my way to go to the Decatur Indiana store

I remember a member of this site posting a pic of one he had bought, this was several years ago. I looked on their website and could no longer find them, but they did have another low hp tractor that they sell, so I would guess they no longer build them for Lamborghini. I saw one for sale that was a model year 2016. I like the white color scheme, but I could never keep it clean. I liked the Green Cabela’s color probably the best.

The vast majority of TYM's export business is the U.S., made up of TYM, Mahindra and RK brands, and last year two models built for Zetor NA.

I think I saw elsewhere that RK corporate decided that their own website was to be the one, only, and official mouthpiece for RK tractors - not the TBN forums - and that they were pulling back their participation here. In addition, I understand that RK employees no longer are permitted to participate on these forums either.
