Subject: RE: Times change - economic cycles



Pittsburg, Kansas
The equipment dealers in the 80's struggled and some collapsed.

Can't remember the year. Was looking at used 4450 JD's. Ended up ordering factory new 4450 and waiting a couple months for it and paid no more than what was being ask for 1000 hour tractors.

Dealers got stuck with high dollar trade ins while factory slashed prices to move products being produced.

Broke a lot of dealers backs. Everybody was hurting and trying to survive.
