I appreciate you doing this but most people aren't going to know what in the world you mean by an orange finger. I don't know what would be good: "Long live the the family farm...NOT" or 1985 - Duetz Allis formed from Allis Chalmers - drops orange keeps name. 1990 - AGCO Allis formed from Deutz Allis - gets orange back. 2001 - Allis Gleaner Corporation drops Allis from it's name. 2008 - Allis Gleaner Corporation drops Allis from it's moniker and becomes "Your AG Company" 2009 - AGCO makes plans to drop orange from line. 2010 - I DROP AGCO!! |

Maybe this makes more sense. I thought of an IG inspired change too. 1985 - Deutz Allis formed from Allis Chalmers. 1990 - Allis Gleaner Co. forms AGCO-Allis from Deutz-Allis. 2001 - AGCO drops Allis from "AGCO-Allis" 2008 - Allis Gleaner Co. drops Allis from it's moniker and becomes "Your AG Co." - Allis gone! 2009 - Your Ag Co. becomes "Your Arrogant German Company" and makes plans to drop orange from line. - Orange gone! 2010 - ALLIS ORANGE is gone and so am I!!!!!!! How's that? |

Here is a quick doodle I put together that I think would make a good shirt...
 THE 2010 AGCO "PHASE OUT"
Saying's for below the logo for all AGCO brands...
VISIT YOUR LOCAL DEALER BEFORE IT'S TO LATE.
YES, WE'RE DOING IT TO OURSELVES!
WHY PROMOTE THE COMPANY BEHIND THE SUCCESS?
For the A-C customers...
IF ORANGE IS GONE SO AM I!
For the old A-C dealers...
I SURVIVED DEUTZ FOR THIS???

I came up with the Arrogant German Company. Feel free to use it all you want to try to show those idiots that were not going to take this lying down.
