Tractor News Help with Montana parts

[rcfarmlowline]

I am begining to wonder if the great price I paid for my Montana 5740C is going to be a small price to pay for the head aches that I am begining to feel. I have had the right side door blow out on me twice in less than a year. The first one I contacted a dealer about 1.5 hours away, cause my local dealer quit selling the brand, and he was able to get one and it cost around $350.00 with shipping. Now this time I have called all the dealers in Missouri, were I reside, and all but one would not take an order for any parts. They called NC and were told there were no parts on hand and no time line for getting any more. Now one dealer over 2 hours away is saying that he can get a door and have it in a week. The kicker is it is going to cost me 550.00 with shipping. So I am begining to think I should have paid the extra and purchased a tractor with a more stable base. If I can't get parts then it is no better than an over sized anchor sitting in the barn. Anyone shed some light on what is current with the company?

Oh boy, that makes me feel warm and fuzzy. Good luck. At least my 3040 doesn't have doors.

I have some good news with regards to LS built Montana tractors. I contacted LS tractor today and spoke with the parts department. I was told that parts can be ordered through an LS tractor dealer that will work with the Montana tractor's. They are in stock and ready to go. This news makes me feel a little better about the tractor I depend on so much on the farm.
