Went to the city..

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I was up in Kansas City on 435 to pick up parts when I saw a new R76 headed somewhere, not long after saw two trucks with 3 masseys and a LT series AGCO. Coming home I saw two more trucks with two masseys like the DT series. Got me thinking that maybe the R76 and LT series are going to new homes and the masseys are going to the dealers lots to set for the rest of their lives. I know that the AGCO had to be sold or someone wanted on. I know my dealer around here doesn't sell many new AGCO's but they never set on the lot for long when he had them in. Hasn't sold hardly any massey. I see in pictures on tractor house of massey and challenger dealers lots looking car dealerships, AGCO dealers never looked crowded like that and the tractor was more popular. Sorry for the long post just thought I'd share.

	Our local AGCO dealer in Gibson city had 6 new orange AGCO tractors on the lot when I was there last month. The salesman says they are selling well. They also had a few similar Masseys on the lot and a bunch of versatiles. I see more Deere and CNH units on the road, but that is more a function of where we are located. Anything going to the southeast has to go through Champaign and Indianapolis at some point. There was a bunch of new equipment sold last month and there will be even more sold in the next couple of months as guys get lined up for 2011 crop production.
