Yes, and when I say "Siri, cut grass" it would respond "OK, ordering gas on your credit card. Done.". If the maps are like my those on my Toyota, a brand new vehicle would come with 2 year old outdated maps that cost $600 to update AND they require I use my cell phone data plan to work.On the bright side, it would come with a free GPS tracker and have voice command to operate the PTO with 24/7 wireless communication.

I guess I'm pretty ignorant and rude. In Canada there are only 5 banks because they have a government protected monopoly. Every year they report record earnings. They pay no interest on savings. Every year my bank fees go up. Every year they reduce service and make it impossible to speak with a human being.
If I stuff $1,000 cash in my mattress I will have $1,000 at the end of the year. If you put the money in a bank I will only have $880 left in the same period. That's before inflation knocks off 5+% of its value.
Guess what? Car insurance companies in Ontario Canada also have a government enforced monopoly. Guess what banks are now getting into? Providing car insurance. WTF. So much for "free market"

With a brand new year and a new decade, it’s a great time to step back and asses things in our life. No, you don’t need to add this to your New Year’s

Lol...what a take. I wish you would have followed up on your free market theory.
Business that are in the form of corps have a mission(statement) that is carried out by a board of directors on behalf of the shareholders. Shareholders drive the ship...
Ethics for a tractor company extend to things that impact their business dealings, and have very little down stream direct impact to customers. Customers are indirectly the beneficiary of good ethical companies.
Do consumers go to a mega tractor dealership and ask the sales man...let me see all your tractors from your most ethical tractor company?

Here,s my take on this, it doesn,t matter if it is a tractor dealer, truck dealer, car dealer, or trailer dealer, most salesman are as low as a snakes belly in the grass, and would rob their own mother blind, if they are allowed to. When buying, do your homework, and go in, as prepared as you can possibly be, and be prepared to walk, if you don,t feel you are getting a fair deal. Most are interested in an easy sale, from uninformed buyers, who are willing to sign on the dotted line, for zero down, easy payments, that last forever.

Probably because at one point they were caught doing it then fined. Lol.

Reminds me of Google's old motto... "Don't be evil".
They actually took that down several years ago without explanation.

Wonder if that pertains to the 'right to repair' lawsuits Deere is embroiled in presently?
