Yup,and I've faced the facts and accepted them as of this morning. This isn't by accident. Deere and Co has been working on this business model for 20 years now. They serve two kinds of customers and it's because that's the way they want it. They sell equipment,not parts,to the 2000+ acre guy from their few and far between DeereMart super stores,and they sell cheap imported junk to the weekend wannabees who think they're a real JoeFarmer because they have a Deere,through their Lawn and Leisure locations. They've proven with this whole A&I Parts business that they have no interest anymore in servicing guys like me who make a living farming and staying debt free by keeping this older stuff going by wrenching on it ourselves.
Take my advice for what it's worth,but if you farm like I do and want to keep it up,loose your brand loyalty,find a dealer who fits your personality and the way you farm and give them all of your business. I've been hospitalized for problems with my blood pressure. My Dad died of complications of a stroke after laying in a nursing home for 54 weeks. I honest to God feel like it's a threat to my life to do business with Deere anymore. And why should I? They've as much as told me,they don't care.
