Well, after months of shopping on-line and phone calls, I've come to the conclusion that no "dealers" west of the Rocky Mountains wants to deal with or stock "compact" tractors! Was interested in a new 1760M but can't find one any where that's with in a day trip of my location. Be nice to be able to go and "kick the tires" etc. but no luck. Dealers out this way seem to be only interested in selling 100+hp units. Was told they could order it, if available, but would mean a commitment from me i.e. down payment and/or sign finance papers plus they quoted a price that's 10k above the "suggested" price. Then there was the other "zinger", that one dealer told me, was IF I was to get one thru them and because I'm not next door to them (120 miles away) it would cost me 125.00 per hour (to & from) travel time for a mechanic to take care of any tractor issues whether it be warranty work or other!
So bottom line is, if I really want to check out a new 1750M, I'll have to jump on a plane and fly to Texas or farther east, "kick the tires" and fly back home!
