To Fawteen and the others that like to bad mouth JD why don't you take just save us all the whining and go buy something else. Then you can complain about that brand!!!!!! Your JD 750 is just a YANMAR so go by one direct. Then you can complain about MOTHER YANMAR!!!
I buy parts for just about all the different brands out there. JD is no better or worse than any of the rest. NH parts are just about the same as JD an its takes them three days to get anything that I can have here the next day at JD. I actually have had the high price shock on AGCO parts more so than the other brands. On a Oliver three point pin they wanted $89 dollars and the part was three dollars at Farm&Fleet. I just returned it and paid the restocking fee. PLUS I thanked the guy at the counter for his service but I just could not justify the extra cost for a simple part. I did not stand there an cry and whine.
As far as dealership treatment. I think JD and CIH are both pushing the MEGA store thing too far. It is easy when you are selling everything you can build like the last 3-4 years have been but I think the cliff is coming and those Mega stores will crash and burn. Lets see how they do with two hundred 200K combines that don't sell for 3-4 years. That has a real possibility of happening.
As for the treatment at individual stores. I have good relationships with all the local stores. I also try to make the guys life easier at the parts/service counter. I try to look my parts up before I even go in. I also don't waste their time if they are real busy.
I have been on the other side of the counter when someone comes in for a small item and then stands there complaining that it is too high a price. The part may only have been a few dollars but they complain that they used to buy it for a few pennies. I made darn sure the next time they came in I did not have anything they wanted. Was that right?? Not really but it is human nature. Does anyone really want to help a cry baby tight wad??? NO.
So to the guys that want to run JD and other brands down. GO SOME WHERE ELSE AND BUY THAT BRAND. There are plenty of customers that like the product and parts that JD and others sell. We will keep them going. You guys just go and make someone else MISERABLE!!!!

Today's Featured Article - A Cautionary Tale - by Ian Minshull. In the early 1950s my father bought an Allis Chalmers B and I used it for all the row crop work with the mangolds and potatoes, rolling and the haymaking on our farm. The farm and the Allis were sold and I have spent a lifetime working on farms throughout the country. I promised myself that one day I would own an Allis. That time event
