Thinking of becoming a Mahindra Dealer. Any advice?

[Gale Hawkins]

The new dealer close to MIllington is just opening up. Abby's Farm Supplies I think is the name of it. They have 1 or 2 other stores already open in Miss. Their service department is not open yet. Hope they do well. Sure is alot of tractors there. I looked at them yesterday also. Friendly group, we shall see how they do. Hope all is well in Murray. I am from Paducah, now in Brighton Tn.

I thought it looked like a new lot. It is wet in Murray.

It may have been on the north edge of Ripley I picked up an old Oliver 500D or 600D (plate very hard to read) four wheel wagon on the way back to KY from Memphis. It was about 20+ miles south of Dyersburg because that was were we stopped to check for hot wheel bearings/loose wheels etc. It has the 5th wheel steering vs tie rods like the used one dad picked up in the early 60's used so I am guessing it is about 60 years old.

We pulled it at the posted speed limits without issues and the wheel bearings stayed cool to touch the entire 100+ mile trip. It is very heavy due to the steel bed and grain sides.

My son said it needs painting and I told him it was painted rust color. He did not laugh.
