MMM availability problems?

[hazmat]

Is anybody else having problems getting their MMM? I've been waiting over a month now for my 60" Rear discharge.

I put another call into the dealer today, he is supposed to call me back this morning.

Spence200 is there a factory backlog or something? When I bought my tractor they said that there weren't any in stock & I would have to wait until production started in June. They tried to locate one at another dealer, but couldn't find any in the New England area.

I can't complain too much, as they have lent me a RFM to use in the meantime. But, my fiancee (soon to be wife - July 13th is the big day) is afraid to mow with the RFM.

Dealer just called back after talking to New Holland. They are in production now & it should be at the dealer some time next week. I'll believe it when I see it.

There is a big backlog on everything New Holland under estimated sales this spring thinking there was a recession comming now the dealers are waiting for stuff for weeks.

Het Spencer200,

Does this backlog include tractors?

Just wondering......Hope to get mine this month and it will have to be ordered.

Thanks,

every thing! We have 20 tractors on order and only 1 in my yard. Its a sad situation.

Spencer,

Thanks for the info. I'm sure its as frustrating for the salesman as it is for the customers.

Hey Spencer200,

Do you think this will affect the program for July? Or are they going to try to stay in competition with Kubota's Rebates?
