MSM: JD does a more insidious thing to stop you from buying form another dealership. List and dealer cost do not have much meaning. It is all in the sales programs in effect for the piece of equipment. So what JD does is make certain discounts only be for customers in that dealer's "area of responsibility" or prior customers. So the odds of finding a new piece of equipment costing a lot less away form home is rare unless there is a trade-in effect the trade price.
I ran into this when I was shopping for a skid steer loader years ago. JD had came out with a lot better cab. I had been running Bobcat skid steers. I wanted a JD 332. I was buying straight out. I found one down in IL that had been on a dealer's lot for over a year. They wanted to sell it pretty bad. I went to pick it up and they could not give me the price quoted because JD would not honor the cash discount of $3500 since I was buying out of my area. I stopped on the way home and bought a low houred Bobcat 873. At that time the JD skid steers had a much more limited dealership list than the Ag equipment. They have brought out some newer JD models for us to try. I tell them to knock the $3500 off like they should have back then and I might buy one. LOL

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
