Some companies are vary strict with the demands on dealers that they only carry one brand. I know we have gotten some letters from the management that have expressed that.
We have chosen what we have not to confuse our help on the parts and the service end of issues but to assure that when a customer asks what is the best for this job we have a better chance of giving them the best unit for the job! That doesn't mean it is the best that we sell because it's all we sell!
Times change and just like CNH make a choice recently to limit the scope of their tractor choices it is not the first time a major has done that so we look to keep our bases covered and to try to maintain the highest standards for our customers.
