FarmTrac Troubles

[redneckford]

An American Company Takes The High Road and looks to long term profits instead of short term stock prices????? What a new beginning!!!!

Taxpayer -- Earlier in this string you asked about the distribution center in Collins, MS, did you ever get your answer?

yes shannon,those tractors were acknowledged by farmtrac at the meeting. that is a whole seperate issue, I don't know how it will be resolved.----Taxpayer

Attention dealers and territory managers,

Your assistance is needed in gathering "tractor loading" info... If you'd share related statistics and information, I'd be grateful.

Please see attached form.

If it malfunctions, you may also get it from...

Wow-I am happy to see that someone is asking the questions that have plaqued our minds. Exactly how many tractors got dumped between November and Jan. I hope alot of dealers respond to this! It will only help us in the long run.

textron formed a customer advisory council in sept 5,2007 to get feed back from customers.my question is why the farmtrac dealers never heard of it? anyone interested in this council can google "textron financial customer council' it will be under newsroom.------taxpayer

That is the biggest joke I ever heard of!!!!!!!!! I ,too, wonder why the Farmtrac dealers never heard of it............guess at that time they thought they were fattening up the Farmtrac dealers for the kill as far as they were concerned.

sess,I see on the news, the wildfires burning down in central fla. hope you are not in danger. use blue tractors as a firebreak, they will never burn now that you're stuck with them.serously, we pray all our florida dealers & their families are safe.-----taxpayer

I just read that article about the customer advisory council and found this statement funny-"Textron Financial listens intently to each idea and opinion that is shared by the Customer Advisory Council", I guess this listening was prior to January 2008!
Thanks Taxpayer for the concern over the fires. We are a couple hundred miles from where they are right now, but its too close for comfort. We are watching them closely because more keep popping up every day! We need LOTS of rain right now but none is in site!
Did all the dealers get their weekly email from Farmtrac: "No change". SESS
