It's especially sad when Deere & Company has a wide line of products and could redefine some of their Dealers and allow them to continue on in another form. I worked for a Recreational Vehicle Dealer about 27 years ago. They were the 3rd company to sign on as a Holiday Rambler dealer, but lost the franchise about two years before I went to work for them. The reason was my employer wasn't big enough and didn't want to carry and inventory one of each of their models.

A year later Holiday Rambler was sold to Harley Davidson and about 10 years later it was sold again to Monoco Coach that eventually went bankrupt with the assets later acquired by Navistar. My employer was handling some other brands of trailers and only lasted a few more years before they sold out to a competitor that was had picked up the HRC franchise
