Remember we have tobacco and alcohol going of us or going against us depending on your point of view.
In all seriousness I do not understand why we did not see housing price increases or decreases like much of the rest of the nation. We are very rural like like even in the cities and I think a lot of people have family support. $10 per hour is still a pretty good wage in many areas. A lot of people have skills to meet many of their own need for services.
I hope the news media do not talk us down into a hole.

The reason we did not see housing prices increase and decrease in the rural parts of the US is that the prices had not gone up to crazy prices because of hugh demands so therefore our prices did not have to drop back down to reasonable normal prices, they were already there. Interesting that the President of UAW said their workers will not be able to buy the cars they make if they only make $14 an hour plus I'm sure great benefits. I suspect most of the buyers of new cars make less than $14 per hour per individual. That $14 per hour is about $30000 a year. and most of us in rural America feel that is a pretty good annual salary.Remember we have tobacco and alcohol going of us or going against us depending on your point of view.

Yeah, it is an instant rebate, so comes off the dealer price. Finance Customer Rebates
My dealer gave me half the amount of the rebate off even with 0% 60 month, so I went with the 0% on a new BX2360 coming tomorrow or Friday.

Barlow's gave me a price with the idea of financing part of it. Since I'm not I wonder if he gave it to me or not.

Ask him.
He has changed his price on me a couple of times when I went to sign the paperwork. One time for $1000 and one time for $700. less than the agreed on price. Steve said he had gotten some money from Kubota after the deal was made. Once was because Kubota gave me Fleet price for some strange reason.

Maybe because you own a fleet?
Guys there is no uptick. If these brands don't back down on their price AND offer 0 interest they are going to go belly up. These tractors are not moving because the bulk of them are real cool toys...like a Harley...and in our area of the country you can buy any Harley for any price. You know things are tough when the Harleys are going at a major discount. And the CUTs are not hardly moving at all. The Kubota dealership went belly up. That is one reason I pulled back from buying a NH two weeks ago...the dealership/companies just aren't ready to bargain like I think they should. On the other hand my Massey dealer just flat out told me to wait till this week as he thought he could give me a heck of a better deal so I said okay...will see him Saturday. He is really trying to put together something and even offered to find a bank with a great rate as he feels these 0% interest deals so are just fiction as they acually just tack on several thousand dollars on the back end of the price. When I can get a great deal (discount) plus 0 % I will go for it. Mainly I just want these guys to realize everyone else is lowering the price of their goods so why not them. What is "reasonabe" and what is not all depends on the underlying economy...all else is fiction.

ham can you not tell us what we want to hear instead of being so factual.
