| I can remember a conservation I had with a john deere service manager who started as a mechanic and then part owner of a family owned jd dealership here in northern new York.they later sold the franchise to another excellent dealer 30 miles from us that was also a family operation.our conversation centered around the newer tractors loaded with electronics.he commented that when this new stuff gets to be the age of the 20,30, and 40 series tractors they'll all be in the scrap yards or fence rows because first all the mechanics knowledgeable on them will be retired and gone and secondly there won't be any parts available to fix them with.this man was very knowledgeable and outspoken--john deere hated to cope with him at service meetings as he "told it like it was" and mama deere doesn't like someone taking the customers side.and yes he worked for years as service manager for that dealership.he is now close to 80 and his thoughts on the whole scenario haven't changed. | |
