Phone survey on tractors?

[Muhammad]

Yeah, that's true... but to give your physical address could be risky if you don't know who the company is.

John, I don't know whether they got my name and phone number from Kubota, the dealer, the state, or what. The lady who called was very courteous, asked whether I would want to participate in their survey, and if so, what date and time I would want her to call back after I returned the written survey, and she did call back on the date and time I gave her. And I don't know who they were doing the survey for, but the written one had lots of questions about which type of transmission, what colors, what accessories, what implements, what features, etc. that I preferred. It also had just black and white line drawings (sketches?) of three different body styles and asked which appearance I preferred. It didn't mention any tractor or implement by brand name, but it was quite obvious that those sketches were a Kubota, a Deere, and a New Holland./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif I've completed similar surveys for J. D. Powers on automobiles, but they never paid me for doing it./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif I can certainly understand people who want to protect their privacy, but you know me; I just tell anybody anything as long as it's only about me and my opinions./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif
