Burst my bubble at the dealership

I have to agree with KJ on this one too. That is it being Sam Cook. Shoot I did it again. Don't mean to be a big suck up. /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif Funny how us Kioti owners all seem to think alike. Is that a good or bad thing. Gota be good as we all bought the best brand of tractors. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif Oh boy is this going to get everyone's blood boiling. Just trying to stir things up before Church.

Back to the point of Kevin37's as long as you feel good about the situation. That is what really matters. Good luck and let us know how thing pan out.

( I thought that was by Cat Stevens?) This song, Another Saturday Night was a big hit for Sam Cooke in 1963. I think Cat Stevens was a little boy then or maybe not born yet? Stevens may have covered the song later as so many artists do. John

Hmmm.......the next question is,if he does find one will he be able to give you the same price? Very easy to low-ball a price on something you know you can not deliver. I guess we'll only know for sure if he can find one for you in unsold stock.

( or maey one of those sold units sitting in the yard will suddenly become unsold? call me cynical ) I was wondering about that myself. Imagine someone is still waiting after 3 months for his / her tractor? I don't get it. John

He guy's. Just because they've been sold for three months doesn't mean they've been sitting on the lot for three months. I've seen more than one of you bemoan the fact that it took xx weeks or months for your tractor to get here. You can be a cynical bunch.

( He guy's. Just because they've been sold for three months doesn't mean they've been sitting on the lot for three months.) This is what the poster said:( The three 4710's I saw on his lot were all sold THREE MONTHS AGO!) I read that as, I saw them on the lot, they were sold three months ago. What's cynical about it?

My dealer is in a situation like that each spring. He has one customer that leases about 24 tractors for the spring to fall season each year. They come into the dealer at various times and many of them sit for quite a while before being delivered. In the fall they all come back and once again they sit and wait to be sold as lease returns. The dealer doesn't own these machines, New Holland Credit does. As far as the availability, I think you guys are being much too hard on the dealer. even if he did know there might be a problem with availability, I see nothing wrong with pricing one up and then working on availability. When I got my second TN, we worked out the details and then I was told that NH had none, and they could go to another dealer or I could wait for one from Italy. I choose to wait and it took 5 months. Had I optioned it differently, I probably could have gotten one from New Holland PA.
Hopefully Monday will bring good news. But remember there is always BLUE /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif
