I think hornell's problem is they were once a thriving small city with strong industry and many small to medium dealers could do just fine. They now are a shadow of thier once great selves and with less money floating around, a large dealer and a huge chain store dealer have taken over the money that's left there. If you want a Chevy, Dansville has a great Chevy dealer just up the road. That in itself is part of the problem. Having a dealer of one brand in every other town was once possible. As the dealers get larger its no wonder some are bound to merge or get out because you can only sell so many products in a given area before the area is saturated. Tractor dealers, grocery stores and hardware stores are no different. Mega stores are great but you can't have them on every corner like you used to be able to have mom and pop stores. Small town dealers that have only relied on locals and not selling thousands of cars a year are still around. Service departments and selling a steady flow of fewer cars still keeps the doors open. My response to rusty was because he said ford pulled all small dealers and thier sales aren't doing well, and both are not true. The problem is that when people say things like that enough times, others believe it. Just like saying imports are superior vehicles. They got thier foot in the door selling cheaper cars and trucks that people could easilier afford, now look at them. I remember the Toyota and Nissan trucks from the 80's. don't tell me they were superior, but they sold. Maybe the big three should go back to thier roots and sell a decent product at a decent price again.

One of the great things about working on a tractor engine with your other half is that you know what he is thinking of at all times and can anticipate his every move and his next thought of what he will do. With Ben, anyway, I can tell! He'll be busy working and I�m handing him tools and he says, "give me that..." and I�ve already got it in his hand or "hand me that....."and I�ve got the portable light right where he needed it placed to see. "Run in the house and get me a...."as I open th
