I don’t know where Oldtanker gets the idea that it’s not a bad thing, but it is. There’s less competition for both employees and customers, and both get screwed as a result. Ag equip mechanic is a very skilled trade requiring in-depth knowledge on tractors, combines, hay equipment, tillage equipment, seeding equipment, etc. Beyond that you aren’t dealing with only equipment made in the last 5-10 years.. you’re dealing mostly with stuff made in the last 15 years, but some dealers also see a lot of older equipment, from 30 years old, to 50 years old. Deere is by far the worst for pushing consolidation of dealers. They aren’t just selling consolidation on economies of scale, and discounts that encourage it, they sell it on, “if you don’t, you won’t be a dealer” Don’t consolidate, and you won’t have a contract next time around. CNH is mostly indifferent I think, if you want to, here’s some discounts, if not, as well as you’re doing well, and selling enough parts and wholegoods, we don’t care what you’re doing.

Some of them only bring their noses down out of the air long enough to look down them anyway. If you are like me you are only doing this old tractor stuff because you enjoy it. You
