Just surfing through and found your site. I sell cars for a living and I belive we as whole have been given a bum rap. First although there may seem to be a large difference between trade in and retail-one must consider the cost of advertising, sales staff, building and capital costs, insurance, interest to maintain a fleet of vehicles, etc. Not counting the risk in purchasing some vehicles. Second I have never gone out and made anybody buy my product. That a decision that falls squarely on the consumers shoulders. One must realize my job is to protect the interest of my employer and maximize profit levels-not to act as an agent for the buyer. That is left up to the purchaser to ensure the best price they can obtain through negotiation. Sure we ask as much as we can its called capatilism-it is up to the consumer to educate themselves on values, depreciation, long term costs, competitive prices, etc. We get a bad rap in part due to a consumer not willing to settle for a less expense vehicle that falls into their budget and biting off more than they can chew. Hope your car shopping experience becomes more pleasant!

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
