Sad, sad day for my supertrak

I will say this.....
after waiting for almost 2 months for a check that was "In the mail", i have closure.

$10,000 upside down, but i have closure and a new machine.

My local dealer for supertracks gave me a heck of a deal on a demo machine with only 28 hours on it, and my interest rate dropped significantly, so i made out ok.

After the run around i had waiting on my check, the president of the insurance company called me and switched everything i owned to replacement cost. !YAY!

Glad that YOU know what is needed as far as insurance goes. I fill like I could sell insurance after dealing with them on claims. Hope the economy is still good enough to support your new mower.

Not really, things are looking pretty grim. I need to sell some equipment pretty quickly! ASV anyone? Great deal!

That's the ebb and flow of business. I sold some excess equipment last year due to lowballers(low bidders) and I've been keeping track with the supervisor. He said they stay broke down and he's heard every excuse in the book on why they are behind. I told him to call when he wants the job done and no BS. I lose and gain contracts all the time, I plan my business accordingly.

We had the same problem with our SuperTrack Takeuchi this past April. The fire started in the engine compartment, and accelerated so fast that our operator had only a moments notice to get it clear of the woods before it exploded. Absolutely no time to react to put it out. We took great care in keeping the engine compartment clean, in fact he spend over an hour that morning cleaning it out before operating it. The engine compartments were never designed to work in that environment. It appears from these strings that there are two additional incidents noted. Are there more with this specific model?
