rrlund: It seems like it still boils down to location nation wide and local dealerships. I know many of you are treated like step children by JD with the mega dealerships. So far the dealership chain that is around here is not changing much at the local level with parts and service. It is the knowledge of the parts people too. The fellows that are behind the local JD store are older experienced fellows. When they are gone we may very well have your issues.
As for AGCO here it must be location nationally effecting the local parts delivery. I can't get anything next day from AGCO. It is 2-3 days.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
