After a lifetime of dealing with one of 3 dealerships, (a Massey Ferguson dealer, a Ford/New Holland dealer, and a John Deere dealer) I decided to give a look at a NEW John Deere dealership that recently opened near here. They had an assortment of farm tractors, but mostly, they catered to the ranchette/homeowner types. Lots of lawn mowers, compacts, lightweight implements, ect.
And then I met their salesman. He sauntered out like he was JOHN DEERE himself. This "kid" obviously thought he knew it all. I'd imagine he went through a Deere sales training course or something simular. He automatically assumed that since he knew so much, no one else knew ANYTHING. I was looking to buy a specific model of tractor. I knew what I wanted. It took all of 5 minutes for him to discourage me from spending my money there. I look at this guy as a direct reflection of the DEALERSHIP, but not that of John Deere or their products.
I took my business back to the dealer where I'd been trading for 40 years. The "kid" managed to insure his employer of missing out on a $145,000 sale.
