Hi From what i see everything is being done for a dealership or OEM profits, nothing is really being done to help the customer anymore, other than remove his money or put the small repair shops and farmers out of business. I run a small shop here, it would not be unheard of to wait anywhere from 2 weeks to 3 months for a part. This can be on a machine 10 years old or less to.
The horror story I just heard about a new Trackhoe and out of the 6 months they owned it it's only worked 2. With problems. The guy told me there is now a 2 month back order on a turbo!. I think he said this was a $450.000 machine and he is using a 10 year old dealer loaner scrap heap. While making payments on his.
Another guy had his big 4wd case IH written off after an accident no parts to fix it. That tractor was not that old!. I just heard from another reliable source a brand new tractor was a bad one and the dealers had to take it back, get rid of it somewhere and give the guy a new tractor. With the cost of new equipment and these $5000 upwards emission components I think the costs of machinery repairs will kill farming, equipment operations and the trucking industry in the next 10 years. My shops busy but in the next 5 years everything I fix now will be done due to no parts, or I can't fix the computer in the newer stuff. Regards Robert
