cabelas is discontinuing tractor sales

By the way . . Lowe's typically isn't in areas of less than 100k pop. HD 50k pop and up and Menards 25k pop. and up.

Thats not true in my area.

Mansfield OH, has a population of ~50k and has all three. (Technically they are in ontario, a 6000 pop suburb of mansfield)
Marion Ohio 36k has a lowes and menards
Mt Vernon 17k has a lowes
Marysville 22k has both HD and lowes
Newark 47k has HD and lowes
Lancaster 38k has lowes and Menards
Zanesville 25k has Lowes and HD
Chillicothe 22k has Lowes and Menards

Infact, in most of ohio, If there is either a menards or HD in town, you can count on their being a lowes. But If there is a lowes, dont always mean the other two are there...yet. In all the examples above, those are the "large" towns in the counties, not counting places like Columbus or Cleveland. So they ALL have locations in 20-25k population towns in my state. So I wouldnt say lowes sticks to 100k plus towns. If that were the case, there are only 6 cities in ohio they would be in (Cleveland, columbus, cincinnati, toledo, akron, dayton). But infact, lowes has 30+ (just doing a quick count on the map) that are outside these 100k+ cities by a fair amount

Well I bit on one the other day.... 25hp,with fel. Was just over 13k with our 9% tax included. I've not put but a couple of hours on it, but so far, I'm quite happy with it. They claim they will do warranty work on it, with luck, I'll not have any...
Now to get a tiller and a mower for it...

LOL. I know there is a Cabelas and Bass Pro in OKC. Is that close enough?

So again you are making it out that people who are "executives" are above living in Sidney because its' rural but the other "employees" are just "different". Sounds to me like you have an agenda against Cabela's and look down upon people who are just "employees" and not "executives".

it's pretty clear looking at thier location maps where they are focused.

I have nothing against Cabela's read my posts again if you need. I am only speaking from my experience in working with them. My observations. If you want to turn it into a personal attack on me. Have at it.

I have worked with all levels at Cablela's. Middle management and executives. I have walked many halls of the HQ. Have you? I have also spent all my career being an "employee". I started my career at 14 pumping gas and working for a decade in a small outfitter selling to hunters and fisherman. Have you?

I have no bone to pick with either Cabela's or Bass Pro. Personally I prefer to visit a Cabela's. Its pretty clear you love Cabela's and get your little feeling hurt anytime someone suggests anything negative.

It's kinda small. Probably not having wet dreams yet.
