Thank you....
RedRiver said:whiteh20, in no way was my comment directed at you. You received a good deal on a tractor, there is nothing wrong with that.
I also realize MSRP is the suggested retail price, that's why I don't get the huge fuss over MSRP's not being posted anymore but let's not go down that road again. Just my opinion.
By the way, dealers make very little, if any, profit on warranty work regardless of what you may think.
I was just stating why I have to sell at what some of the other dealers on here consider too low....in hindsight I should have probably just bit my tongue on the topic.
Regardless, enjoy your tractor!

It's simple...demand verses supply...Does it appear I am a little pissy. Yes...if YOU the dealers can't get along then how do you think you make the consumers feel when making a tractor selection? In the end all of the dealers loose and it really doesn't matter where the tractor was bought, your still getting x amount on service and warranty work. Am I confused? The Harley, Dodge, (you pick) dealers could care less what deal you made with an out-of-state dealer....Never a question...they end up with the buck on service and support and these consumer items cost a lot more then the Mahindra I bought.
That being said, there are no Mahindra dealers here so I guess I don't have to lay awake and worry about it..
EFC said:Personally I wish Mahindra would set a minimum price dealers can be allowed to sell tractors for. Unstable dealers give crappy service and crappy service is something you want the competition to be known for not the other way around.

Allowing dealers to sell at cost which is all I am seeing on the quotes posted (some even less than cost) makes the dealer network weak and unstable.
