OUR SINCERE APOLOGIES

[wallace]

This has been one of the hardest weeks Amy and I have ever faced.
We have had sleepless nights and tearful days....
There is really no other way to say it so please accept our sincere apologies and also our many THANKS to everyone that has supported us over the years.

Well after 7 years of being a proud Kioti dealer, we will no longer be selling Kioti tractors.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO SUPPORT OUR CUSTOMERS AND EVERYONE HERE ON TBN IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE!

We will continue to move forward with Wallace Tractor and Equipment as we still have tons of other lines of equipment to offer our valued customers.

We will continue to be active on TBN and we will also be more than happy to help answer all your Kioti questions.

Once again, we are moving forward and please accept our apologies.

"A Rise Manifesto"
Today is another perfect day to Rise.
Today is another perfect day, to defy the world's naysayers.
Today, we will think bigger than our size.
Today, we will refuse to accept limitations.
Today, we will not be held back by the past.
Today we will focus - and never, ever blink.
Today we will break down another barrier.
Scoff at another convention.
And use alternative thinking.
To solve another previously unsolvable problem.
Today, we will accomplish something astounding.
And in the process, change someone's life for the better.
Today we will set an example for the world.
With boldness. With confidence.
With relentless optimism.
Today is another perfect day to Rise.

Over the past few months I have read many of your posts. You have provided thoughtful information to many of us. Sorry that "something" happened with you representing Kioti.
Good luck with your other lines.

That's too bad. Multiple members have advised me to contact you in regards to purchasing a Kioti.

Rick,
Sorry to hear that things aren't going well for you. I've read good things about you and your service. I sincerely hope that the rest of your future endevors go well for you. Outstanding dealers are hard to find and we need to keep you guys around.

 

[Thomas]

We shall be pulling hard for you as you done for us over the years.

Why? Did Kioti stop supporting you because of low tractor sales? Things are extremely tough all over the country. The Deere dealer salesperson told me that this year is worst than last year. Sorry to hear this.

Dang Rick,
Sorry to hear that, I know your really beleived in the Kioti product.
I guess Kioti allowing Bobcat to dump tractors at cost (or below cost) put a hurting on a lot of Kioti dealers.

That is very sad news indeed. I guess you can't share the reason. I thought you were among the leaders in the country sales. So, I'm a little baffled. Good luck. Thanks for the support.

Rick,

I'm sorry to hear this. You have been honest and straight forward with me since we met and I commend you for that. My local Kioti dealer has tried the old bait and switch tactic with me, which is what led me to to purchase else where. I guess I will not be buying Kioti. I will purchase another brand from you anytime.

Keep your chin up.

I'd like to think that this is an April fools joke but that's a week away. If you are not good enough to sell the Kioti line, then I can't imagine what the company is looking for.
May everything work out to be better for you, Amy, and your staff. All top notch people. Thank you for your help and advice in the past and helping all the members of TBN.

Yeah this is definitely a huge loss for the Kioti brand in the northeastern part of the country in my opinion. When I first joined here, I really had not heard that much about the Kioti brand and was a little skeptical of them, as most people are with something new to them. After reading posts on here from great dealers like Wallace I was more comfortable with them and ended up ordering a new DK45SE that I am waiting to take delivery of within the next few weeks. As mentioned above, it was great to know that if something came up with a Kioti, Wallace was there to help whether he was the selling dealer or not.

The nearest Bobcat dealer is............???????

 

[Gil Case]

That makes me feel awful. I bought my tractor from Rick and thought he would always be there.
Don't know what the problem is with Kioti, but there could not have been a better dealer to buy from.

Sorry to hear, good luck and best wishes. Too bad though.

What are you going to be selling now?

Wow. We are all sorry to hear that, and understand "things happen". I have always been impressed with your knowledge of the Kioti system and your willingness to share it to help us----sometimes it made you a dime, but most often all you got was the satisfaction of helping someone out.

Since my Kioti is an '06 I know you will still be the best source I know of for good info. Thanks for all your help, and good luck with your future lines.

P.S. Does the laugh mean that I could buy a Bobcat from you?

Kioti is losing a good dealer and more importantly good people. (Just an "outsiders" opinion)
