Re: others will take their business

Local JD dealer here are a bunch of banjo player descendants inherited the JD franchise for generations, figured their product is so good they can just collect cash without working. Bought New Holland as Kubota did not have what I wanted at that time and the CNH dealer had a good rep for repairs (the dealer quality is more important than the tractor color). Nothing anywhere already built on the continent met specs, needed a custom build out of Jesi so there was delay as the Fiat/CNH engineers decided if it could be done and then the tractor had to waddle across the pond in a container, getting stuck for a while as collateral damage in customs as the usual government idiots of the time peed in each others cornflakes.

No problem buying CNH parts, other then the staggeringly high cost. High cost for tractor parts is the standard situation regardless of tractor color.
