Iowa Farm Equipment

I only even looked at this because as I am looking for a Ditch Flail Mower, this place came up a few times.

Peruzzousa, ACMA and Iowa Farm Equipment websites all show the same address in Tipton. Rather strange for a small town in Iowa. Seems he does a lot of internet business. Not sure what to think, but it seemed odd.

If this wasn’t this persons first post it might mean something. As it is I’m not sure what to make of it, he came on here to badmouth a dealer and may or may not make another appearance.

It is his first thread and first post….

Click on his name above and it shows his stats

I will say that the damaged, used Worksaver stump grinder I purchase a while ago came from them via a Tractorhouse auction and while it was not represented correctly by the seller (bad gearbox and welded poorly main frame), I had no issue with them shipping it to me and they even arranged the shipping on a hot shot which was less than a big truck would have been.

I did part it out and recovered some of what I paid and chalked the rest up to my stupidity

My experience with them was all good.

When someone comes on here and posts a rant like that with their first post, I tend to heavily discount it anyway and like Paul Harvey always said, 'here's the rest of the story'.

Typically these are one and done posts. I don't expect him to come back and post again but he may surprise me. Most keyboard warriors don't have the cajones to support their stance on something like this. Maybe the business is not a retail, walk up business. I suspect that's the case. We have several of those in our area. They are strictly internet and 2 auctions a year. They don't sell retail.

The dealer may have had issues with thefts so they want people to drive in past the showroom so they can monitor their inventory. If people are seen sneaking in the back way, they may have an attitude towards them. They may wonder why they can't seem to read the signs or are they there to steal from them. As other's have said, we don't know the whole story....now if there was a video we could watch!

As mentioned earlier, I was “put off” by the OP’s screen name, and it did not help that I read it after waking up at 4 AM….

But the whole post was questionable in my sleepy mind, and when I had looked at his stats, it only added to my curiosity

I’m not fond of beating up all the second tier manufacturers of tractors. I have only owned 2 tractors, an old 8 N that my father in law willed me, and my CT 235, both tractors I have never regretted having.

I have looked at green and orange, both great brands, but not do great in my mind that I should have to surrender my hard earned gold just to be able to say I’m in the “ club”!

I have no experience with the foreign brands, but I do own the American “big three”, green (JD), red (IH), and blue/grey (Ford). I like them all but the green is my favorite. I’m thankful that they are still in buiseness and I can sympathize with op.

 

[lilranch2001]

I wonder what percentage of JD has yanmar (foreign BUSINESS) engines……

Just the wee ones.

I have driven past Iowa Farm Equipment several times on I80 and occasionally see vehicles in there lot. Have stopped in once and they were civil and polite like most other dealers I have worked with. I believe a big portion of their business is internet and majority of product they carry are not what the large grain farmers would use.
