Tractor OEMs would die before they'll give us anything .......
We rent or borrow tractors to do our thing.
A savvy, experienced, sympathetic field rep from one of the OEM's can be a great resource ....... especially when it comes to helping THEIR customer, who is also our customer. Wink, wink.

Tractor Mfr's are worse! They dont even want you to legally work on a tractor that is under warranty. I think their might even be some lawsuits about that.

Yes we purchase them, then we tear them apart, then we put them back together and ride them.
