John Deere Days - Anyone Else?

[rmonio]

My local JD Dealer just had their annual "John Deere Days" event. It's a great way to see the new gear, talk to some reps, eat some free food, and get 15% discounts on parts, filters, oil, toys, clothing, etc. I'm stocked up now for my next set of changes! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Do other dealers have these at the same time around the nation - or this something that only certain dealers do?

I've kept posted on whatever my local dealers do for the past three years and none of them has advertised any type of promotion I'm aware of. There are three major JD dealer chains in my area so I would think competition is strong but I never see any specials advertised.

Too bad, because I would really appreciate a discount on parts once in a while.

My dealer is doing the same thing this weekend at one of there dealerships and the other dealership in a few weeks, I wish they had them in the warmer months.

Yep, we do that to at the dealer I work for. We had a small yellow and green card to get your 15% off parts with. One good thing about these events is that I don't have to pack a lunch that day! /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Humph! /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

If our local JD dealer planned anything, he'd charge us admission and bump everything up by 15%! /forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Gary,

Buy tht 4310 and he'll let you through the back door where the real party is. No charge!

As a close friend in heavy equipment sales is fond of saying, "...your new contract number is your password...." /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif /forums/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

My local JD dealer has something like this also. They are a third generation family owned company (58yrs.) and they hold it around the annual date the company started. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Nick -

Which dealer in MN do you work for?

And you're right about the free food!

If I am allowed to say Country Side Implements. Great place with a lot of great people! We have an awesome service department in my opinion.
