UPDATE: I found out after I filmed the tractor prices that those prices are for the Tractor ONLY. The front endloader is not included in the price. 👍
The partnership with Lowe’s is concerning because I’ve noticed firsthand when companies go to big box stores the quality always suffers eventually.
Me personally I don't see that happening because it's just the MT122 model. Their main focus with this is brand awareness, with the hopes of more traffic to dealers
The trouble I see is they will sell you anything but try getting parts, my guess is no they sell but don't service!!!
You're right Lowes will sell them but are not going to service them. You will have to go to a LS dealer for that
I don't know about L S or even if there are any dealers need me but in the past I have had trouble getting parts for some of my machines because I didn't buy it at that dealer I told them I moved here from a another state, they don't care only service and get parts for what they sold.
That's not right. I know both of my dealers will service any LS tractors even if they didn't sell it. Sounds like a bad dealer. I've met a lot of the LS dealers across the country and I will honestly say that they are all good people
A reputable dealer is one of the most important things to consider when purchasing a tractor. Go ahead and buy a grill or hot water heater at Lowe’s but good luck buying a tractor there.
I think if people buy a LS tractor from Lowes they are going to get to know a dealer eventually. At least they should
Then why not purchase from an LS dealer to begin with?
@xdude2x a lot of foot traffic going through Lowe's. You know how it is if you can put something directly in front of people they are far more likely to notice it.
I get the reasoning but at the prices these things go for I wouldn’t recommend it being an impulse buy. “Oh look honey, a tractor” is probably not a well thought out purchase but to each their own
@xdude2x time will tell. Hopefully it helps out the dealers and the brand
I think that LS coming to Lowe's is a good thing. Theres no dealership close to where i live. LS tractors are good machines. Glad to see this. Thanks CJ and Kelsey. ❤
How far are you away from Waynesburg, PA?
Good luck getting parts
I registered to win the camp tractor at the NFMS😊 show. That tractor is super nice!
Hope you win buddy!!
I saw (2) LS tractors at my local Lowes (central NC) this weekend after my brother mentioned them when he went to rent a min skid there. I also work for a "green" dealer but not directly in the compact market. This is an interesting and natural marketing evolution in the industry we're seeing with Summit Tractos, JD, Ariens, Toro, etc. It's about brand awareness and buying convenience = sales. Box stores are open from what, 7am to 10pm, 7 days a week, right? Mr. Hesitant Buyer may not want to "pester" a salesman at the dealership for the 5th time he wants to look at a tractor, but there's no pressure at Lowes. The wildcard here is will he visit the local dealer for implements, service, or a different tractor? You can buy attachments, oil, and filters 100% online now or from TSC. I'm sure there is a follow up process to hand the customer from Lowes to the local dealer, so the dealer attitude and follow up will be CRUCIAL to the success of this program for both LS and the dealers. Also, sub compacts are some of the most often traded units because the buyer realized after the sale he needed/wanted a bigger tractor. So that could help the dealers, too. Not advocating for or against, just some observations of a trend that's likely not slowing down soon.
I agree with all you said! Time will tell how it works out. Hope it helps everyone
The only reason I go to the farm show is to shake your hand 😁
The one time a year we see each other is almost too much 😆. Just kidding ol buddy, I always enjoy seeing you. Wish we had more time to chat.
Very awesome!!
Thanks ol buddy! Always fun to see you all
Love them blue tractors, thanks for the video CJ
Hey thanks Dave!
I'm concerned for the LS brand . I fully understand LS wanting to get their name
out there, however many that shop big box stores expect just to exchange a unit should anything happen to it. And this could potentially open a whole new can of worms for LS. And trust me, its a can better left unopened. I can see the dealers being upset due to them not getting the sale. And I can also see to where the dealers would be upset about having to service the equipment that was bought elsewhere as well. So while I initially agree with LS on the get the name out there part, I disagree with doing it through a big box store, knowing the store wont carry much of anything for the machine.
Yes I see what you're saying. These MT122s will only come with a front endloader at Lowe's. But most people with a tractor that size will want a belly mower, and that means they will have to go to the dealer to get it. So what I'm hoping is that the tractors sitting at Lowe's spark curiosity with the buyers, and they do their research at home. Which I hope will eventually have the end up going to the dealers to get all the features on the right tractor for them.
I never understood the "you didn't buy here so I won't work with you " attitude. It's stupid as fuck
That’s interesting, I wonder if they are going to have them at my local Lowe’s store, in my area I have both a Lowe’s and an LS dealer within 20 minutes from home. Man I love the looks of that Camo tractor!
I haven't seen any at my local Lowes either. Yeah the camo with black accents really look nice 👍. Wish you could've made it buddy
I think it’s a good thing to sell their entry level tractors there just as the green tractor sells their lawn mowers there. I wouldn’t go any larger though. I gotta say I’m pretty happy with my LS. Only problem I can’t find enough to do with it lol.
I agree! Lol 👍👍
The Lowe's relationship doesn't seem harmful. At least there is a real dealer attached and assigned to the Lowe's store, so there is less liklihood of a Lowe's customer being considered less-than, and put to the bottom of the list for service and parts. If LS allowed that to happen, it'd be their death knell.
Contrast this with Summit, which has no dealer network...none. I haven't seen the Summits return to my local Home Depot this year. I believe the two tractors they were selling just sat there. This farming ag community doesn't want a new brand without dealer support.
You're exactly right. I tell everyone who is looking to buy a tractor that you have to have a good dealer no matter the brand
Pretty cool , I’d like to see that sometime, very interesting
So much to see down there!
Ls is who makes New Hollands Compact Tractor
That is correct
The only thing I worry about with Lowe’s is service I have a lawn mower from them and to get service it’s about 45 miles away so how far would you have to go for service
There is no service from Lowes. If you buy a LS Tractor from Lowes you would have to take it to the local LS Dealer in that area to have it worked on
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse so why not just buy it from a dealer
That's the whole point of it. Brand awareness
I have two Lowes within 30 minutes away, nearest LS dealer is over hour and half away. Not a good selling point for me.. ill stick with the green paint and dealer 10 minutes away.
Yep gotta do what's best for you. Both dealers I work with are close to 2 hours away, but I have had really good relationships with them and enjoy my blue tractor 👍
I prefer red but I don't have one close well actually a different red " mf" I don't really care I just want something to grade my road and move dirt.
Did you notice the price for the MT342HC?
No in fact I don't think they had that model there at the show. If they did I missed it.
I own a commercial mower business I quit buying those outrageous expensive mowers Lowes mowers I get the same Service Half the Price
I just saw an LS LL1102 today at lowes. Central Florida MOunt dora. Almost 17k basically. Not sure where the LS dealer is in the area.
I think you're the first person to tell me they've seen the LS tractors at Lowe's 👍. If you go to www.lstractorusa.com, they have a dealer locator on there
@@Mallard5plus1Farmhouse looks like cobb tractors in Eustis is the local dealer. Definitely within an hour of that lowes. Im not sure how they will be any more affordable by adding another middle man. The tractor isn't on lowes website so it isn't part of their company product I would assume. Im not understanding the lowes affiliation. There has to be $$ in it for lowes somehow. I suppose we will see how long it sits next to the golf carts that are 11k.
@J_Beazy223 it's basically to bring awareness to the brand. A lot of foot traffic in Lowe's. They are hoping people will see the tractors and look into them more
@@Mallard5plus1FarmhouseSeems to be the only logical reason. That is really nice of lowes to help out. Not many box stores do consignment for products. The LS tractor kind of resembles the little john deere my dad just purchased. Looks like a cool little front loader. i like the blue color of the LS better than JD personally. Good fit for the lowes theme as well
Why should we buy from Lowe’s and not from an actual dealer ?
I will always recommend buying from a dealer. This Lowes deal is to raise brand awareness to people who have never heard of LS. And in the end hopefully it leads these people to the dealers
