I honestly do think it's the chain store mentality. That said,the new Agco dealer that's been giving me such great service since the old dealership I'd been going to for years lost their contract,is the third location for these folks. The owner's family had owned a stand alone Deere dealership years ago.
The old local Deere dealership was a destination for any brand. There was a book right on the counter to cross any bearing to a Deere number. No matter what you needed,bearings,belts,chain,u-joints,hoses,that's where you went.
One of the last times I was at Deeremart,the parts manager who loaded the straw on me that broke the camel's back,was on the phone with somebody who must have been asking about a hose.
