So, for a while now I have been <font color=orange>Orange</font color=orange>. I have done the research, visited numerous dealers. Best of all I thought I convinced the CEO this is the way to go. The CEO managed to get her wish of the pole barn and clearing, fencing of more acreage. She even started talking <font color=orange>Orange!</font color=orange> /w3tcompact/icons/love.gif

So she come back from vacation with a gift for me-----

<font color=green>"John Deere Country"</font color=green> /w3tcompact/icons/shocked.gif

I would consider that a sign from a "higher power"./w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif Maybe it is time to go visit your friendly John Deere dealer.

if your buying a combine or a 200 hp tractor go deere they are the leader if your going to buy a CUT go orange they are
the leader orange has 61% of the market , h ave you looked at the Kioti geeeesh they want to be kubota soo bad it almost looks like it for the CEO just ask and look at where the deere CUT is made it is a Yanmar, so for me i went thru the same thing and orange is where i went on a L3010 i looked and rode and touched and smelled all of them, i just think kubota has it in the CUT market thats just a personal opinion of mine you may feel diff and thats ok, just get what your happy with you will be sittin and ridding a long time on that thing, purchasing a car is easier than a tractor but not as fun.

let me know what you get

KJN128 -- Phrasing your opinion in such inflammatory terms will contribute little of value to this discussion and will only tick off the owners of those fine green or blue tractors. As for Kioti, they seem to be a fine tractor and will only get better...the choice of paint is at worst very shrewd marketing and I can't fault anyone for that.

Like all members, your message will be better heard if you tune down the rhetoric.

Respectfully, Pete

i was only voicing my personal opinion which I did say was my personal opinion, im sorry if i offended anyone on here I was under the impression that this was an open forum to discuss opinions both pro and con and also personal preferences on equipment and other such related topics in the furture i will keep my opinions nuetral and go with the flow rather that shake up some people your observance of my inflamatory comments is appreciated very much and keep up the good work as a gate keeper

thanks you

Hey KJN, welcome to TBN!

May I offer a suggestion? Punctuation. I almost passed out while reading these two posts /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif.
 
   / What did i do WRONG? #7  
Punctuation - agree! Inflammation - disagree! I didn't see anything wrong with it, other than it was a statistical repy to a whimsical post. How can he participate in 99% of the "Off Topic" stuff if he avoids rhetoric and inflammatory remarks?

And likewise welcome to TBN, KJN. Fill out that profile as soon as you're comfortable doing so.

You can't please everyone, and you shouldn't try. I didn't find anything inflamatory in your comments, and I don't think most readers did either.

Of course, I didn't have any paint scraped off my favorite tractor either. I thought your comments were in the spirit of the original post. As long as you don't attack anyone, or intentionally try to damage anyone, keep your opinions coming. If others do not agree, well ... That is their perogative. But you do have a right to speak your mind.

Don't take it personally. The opinions offered on this site are 98% biased (myself included). If there was a TBN convention it would turn into a wild west barroom brawl. "Orange is better". "no blue is better". "no it's gotta be green". "to FEL with you little boy toys...I'll squash all colors with my yellow D9". BUT, there can be alot of "knowledge thru experience" to be found here.
