      So are you worried about the loss in horse power. From what you have stated you need more in some cases. Now Tony fast pulls a hundred for drill with a 580, but he did up the horse power. Will you do that or would that void warranty and potential trade in price once the 715 arrives. I would love to know about this if you don't mind.

    Mike, I think the real selling point for Big Bud, is that it doesn’t have to be serviced by the dealer. Anyone can work on them, and the parts can be ordered or fabricated. Welkers fix their stuff in their shop. Others have a mechanic of choice. I’d bet your dealers could even work on it. But if none of that works for you…you know what works for you.

  • @sividproductions6591
    @sividproductions6591 Před 6 měsíci +2

    Hi Mike
    One thing that you may not know , is that the new one has a financial trick , built into the retail price.
    It's called "Overvalue"
    It allows the dealership to manipulate the discount that you would have received on the new one.
    To give you an example , there is approximately 25% margin added to the dealer net price (DNP).
    ($800,000 dnp) plus the 25% margin equals 1 million
    Most dealers only expect about 15% mark up , which leaves $80,000 in the slush fund (OV) to play around with your trade value or to manipulate the financial transaction.
    We here in Australia, call it funny money.
    This is why you lose so much value , as soon as you drive it out the door.
    Why would a dealer trade it back in for any more, than what they can get a brand new one from the factory.
    $200,000 lost as soon as you sign the document.
    They sometimes pre-pay the interest on a financial quote to make it look like you are beating the banks on interest rate. It all comes out of the (OV) funny money that you don't realise you are paying.

    • @mikemitchell2554
      @mikemitchell2554  Před 6 měsíci +7

      I appreciate that information, but up here dealers would be lucky to cut out 1 or 2% on new equipment. The money is in parts, service and on used equipment.
      They get guys to buy fleet (15+ pieces) and Mother Deere or Papa CNH are the ones giving the farmer the discounts. (they are the ones making the money)
      Then the farmer trades it back after 1 season (500hrs) to the dealer (for another new one) who now buys it on trade to sell used to the next farmer for cheaper still. The first farmer is getting the manufacturer to pay his depreciation and then dealer is still buying it back cheap enough to resell it at fair market value and make more money then if they just sold it new to the 2nd farmer. And we haven't even touched the ice berg of how this type of thing works. 😆
