Does anyone have any tractors in stock that are aged inventory or disabled?I know of about 5 within 50 miles of me. maybe if there are enough of these tractors out there, Textron might be willing to work with us in getting these together as a parts scource for all the dealers. the cost of recovering and disposing of these units would almost be a total loss to textron, however,properly managed and with help from the dealers, these units could generate revenue for textron and help the dealers in what is rapidly becoming a critical parts situation.it would help also in heading off unwanted end user lawsuits. Guys, we need ideas and solutions here, throw me a bone.-----Taxpayer

Taxpayer-forget about throwing you a bone-how about I throw you 12 tractors-9 of which are "due". Next month the remainder will be due so that means my entire tractor inventory is DUE! Because of that, I am offering the tractors $2,000 under invoice to just get them gone and still can't find any takers. What else can I do? I am willing to take MORE loss just to get them gone. I advertise, I have called people that have stopped in within the last year, and still no one wants one. They say call me when you get 0% finance and bigger discounts and a better warranty. Heck I am giving you a discount already out of my own pocket! I feel like mine will be permanent yard ornaments. SESS is at a loss of what to do! Any ideas, send me a PM-I am open to them all!

Just discovered a handy little bit of information concerning fuel filters:

Farmtrac fuel filter kit # ESL15357

Can use Massey Ferguson fuel filters for the new MF 2605 tractor...same exact

primary filter part # 3904889M1
secondary filter part # 3904888M1

Contact your friendly Massey Ferguson Dealer ( that would be me, of course LOL)

Everybody is slow SESS. Hang in there. I know that all brands of tractors are slow selling right now. When we finally get past this election, things should look better.

Fleetguard / Cummins shows an interchange for the spin on fuel filters for the Indian tractors (using the Mico / Bosch numbers). They interchange the pre filter ESL 15357 to Fleetguard FS1251. They interchange ESL-15354 to Fleetguard FS19599. I am going to work on a list to the other filters.

some of the tafe 35/45 had mico/bosch fuel filters are they the same as the "new" massy's if so they can be used in the filter crosses i believe. Some were spin on and some were canister type.

Rob is doing the best he can to keep it a dealer only site.

I know that we are use to using nicknames. However, Rob needs the dealership name. If you don't want to list it on the web site, shoot an email his way saying who you really are and what nickname you will be logging in with.

There are things being said there that can not (my opinion) be said here. Hence, the dealer only need.

If you are having trouble with the new system
send me at Email rob@agequip.com. I must know who you are.:cool:

If you register with a nick name send me an email telling me who you are.
Dealer name and location and owner. I cross this with a master dealer list from Farmtrac. If you are an old dealer with no inventory you will not show on my list.

I have already found two that were not Dealers just thought they we going to get in.:eek:
I am doing the best I can but the Nick names throw me.
:confused:

Hello, all!

The "find a dealer" page function had continued to work even after Farmtrac North America (FNA) headquarters offices had closed... until this past week. See for yourself below...

Find A Dealer

That is not a good sign. One can only imagine what's being done with the server that holds the information. Eeek!

Rumor-mill up and running wide open. Montana working a deal with Escorts???? McCormick to merge with Montana and Sell all three rebaged tractors LG,ESCORTS,Landini?????Rodney to run the whole show. What a Deal!!!! Walmart to provide floor planning???? I think they got that wrong it's China to provide floorplanning but would rather do business in Russia with Buhler/John Deere because their ecomony is more stable and they are selling oil instead of having to buy it. FarmTrac dealers to receive foreign aid from third world countries because their government sold out to politicially correct legal companies that have no morals or ETHICS!!!!! THOSE WITH THE GOLD MAKE THE RULES.!!!! News Flash!!! US disallows foreign aid to FarmTrac dealers says it is just the Cap-it-ol-list system at work.... What time is tee time???? Darn someone forgot to charge up the golf cart quess we will just have to walk na!! to much like work!!!! Anyone seen Brownie????
