dealership nightmare

[Artisan]

:reporter:

I just got a PM from OP, something about "beating my balls off".
...except three of the 4 words were miss spelt... I kid you not.

Why am I not surprised? :clown:

I am not sure what he means, I don't play basketball, football nor
baseball. Perhaps this is a backwoods S MS deliverance kinda thing?
YUCK!

I don't recall any pokes toward Kubota in the OP's posts. He was ticked at the dealer and making pointed remarks at the dealer for it lack of integrity and/or competence. The only problem came when people started to realize that his statements were not consistent and were changing with each telling. Faced with these problems with the story, the OP was asked some followup questions that brought more changes to the story, details not mentioned before (some in conflict with earlier details provided) and a fleshed pre-story that added more questions about his actions. I did not see anyplace where he badmouthed Kubota or Kubota People. He was just real touchy when anyone asked him about any inconsistency or ommitted details, and especially if anyone asked why he paid when the 3pt was put back on the tractor backwards, it would not start and the fenders had only a single bolt.

I accepted his story as being a frustrated complaint about a bad dealer with missing critical details, at first, but as he filled in the details there were more and more holes in the story and too many details seemed to change. I was not going to scream troll, but I was beginning to doubt the truthfulness and completeness of the story.

Another poke I see.

In your original post you stated that you witnessed a mechanic pouring the non-spec oil.:confused3:

Actually in his first post he just said he watched generic oil being poured into his tractor, nothing about not meeting specs at that point in time. Unless you were to read the label or did a search on the internet you would have no way of knowing if it met Kubota's specs or not. There's plenty of non Kubota brands of oil out there that are as good, if not better than Kubota UDT. If his bill said "Kubota" oil on it and it wasn't that should have sent up a red flag but I probably would have said I thought I saw some other brand of oil which would have gotten the usual "It's better than Kubota oil" reply.

What is sounds like to me is the dealer left the cover off the oil and the fumes attracted bugs that died with they fell into the oil. I can't count the number of bugs I find in my used oil if it's left uncovered. They probably assumed the filter would catch it and didn't want to throw away otherwise new oil.

Maybe he was refering to the balls on 3ph lift arms. :laughing:

That's two of us Artisan. Problem is, I'd have to go to the Gulf Coast to receive the beating and assuming the OP is a male, I'd rather go to Destin Beach to view the scenery if I'm going to that part of the country. Wonder how many others (s)he sent the same message to.
