Well, where to start?
I have been looking to buy a Kioti for some time, but no dealers in MD.
Was looking to buy a Bobcat, but things fell apart with that dealer and I was not really going to buy a tractor after that.
I had talked to Rick a couple times over the months, and ended up talking to him about the problems I had with Bobcat (dishonest loader specs, no bucket hooks, no loaded tires, no pallet forks, etc, etc)
Anyhow, Rick put together a package of what "I" really wanted in a few hours, and next thing I am headed 5 hours each way in a rented Ryder truck
(we drove it in off his loading dock, and I backed up to a hill at my place, and drove out).
The 1st thing you notice when you get to Wallace Tractor is that Amy Wallace is running the show
Rick went over every thing on the machine (in a heated shop), then Amy went over all the paper work and manuals.
Spent the next hour loading the tractor into the box truck and BSing with Rick about business in general.
I will have to say, after meeting Rick and Amy, I felt really good about the long distance purchase. And have no doubt they will be around for the long haul. As Rick said "I won't sell you a tractor, but I will help you buy one"
BTW - the Ryder truck was $45 with the 1st 1000 miles free, an easy transport.
No seat time yet, I'll post more after I get seat time.
