White/Oliver had corporate issues that doomed the entire operation form the get go. White bought Oliver for its assets. It was really one of the first hostile corporate take overs. Oliver's stock price dropped below its asset worth.
Oliver was always and innovative company. It just never had a corporate leadership to match. IH and AC suffered the same issues and that is what domed them as well.
JDs strength is not the line of equipment. It is that fact the corporate leadership has in general been good. The financial side has always been strong too.

There are just fewer farms so there needs to be fewer dealers to service them. A dealership just can not survive servicing the smaller farmers only.
