 Topic: One more thing on AGCO
Posted: 09 Dec 2009 at 2:01pm |
that makes dropping AGCO orange idiotic. http:////www.tractorhouse.com/list/List.aspx?PCID=2952507&dlr=1&etid=1&guid=B9FF24E06F1943C2A3C33CE7E2E7456DCheck out AGCO finance listings for equipment. One orange AGCO in the bunch. The rest are mostly Challenger and Massey. I heard this a few years ago that there were very very few AGCO orange tractors returned because of being delinquent and that there were quite a few Massey. Didn't think Challenger would be in there too. Anyway, way to get rid of your most solvent customers who buy your highest margin equipment. Real smart.

Hey its true they don't really want your business..... in all the talks on here, you still haven't figured it out yet... or are you still in denial? lol... seriously though between the economy and the high fuel cost a while back it forced a lot of us out....there where a lot of bad loans made and such, also.... i don't know in your area but around here its so cut throat that i had two of my good friends steal custom contracts from me and contributed in the demise of our farm....and one i considered a friend ripped me off for a total of $8000.00 in hay alone... loaded it with my tractors while i wasn't here and even left them setting out.....broad daylight....3 semi loads.... don't trust anyone there has been a lot of this stuff going on. notice a hole bunch of hay equip..on there.

It's still there when I checked it. I left a comment of my own. Did you notice the John Deere ad next to the blog? LOL If AGCO gave a rats A$$ they would see to it that Prarie Farmer didn't allow that to happen.
