Life after Deere

[TractorTidy]

My name is Scott from IN. I own a dealership in central IN handling Kioti tractos as well as several brands of mowers including Toro and Exmark. I just took on Kioti this year having been a John Deere dealer for many years before being caught up in Deere's "merger-mania". I am really impressed w/ the Kioti brand
and quality of machine. I am learning that there is life beyond Deere and there are other tractors that may even be a little better than Deere. I strongly encourage anyone in the market for a compact to seriously consider Kioti. I believe it is an up and coming company w/ a very impressive product.

Welcome to TBN. You'll find fans of all tractor colors here. I bought my Kubota from a local dealer that bled green for decades, but didn't want to merge with another company. They too have realized that there are many quality products on the market. Please chime in at your leisure, we're a fairly friendly group.

Smaller dealerships either merge with larger one or they were kick to the curb... I think this was done to mainly control prices... (I think, TractorTidy might have a better reply)
