Just in time for Christmas!!! Since the future of AGCO looks bleek here comes "The Proud History of AGCO" or as some of us at work refer to it as "The rise and fall of AGCO, starring Martin Richenhagen" Big Martin himself.
A full section on the great Challegner line backed by dealer service.
A 350 or so page book and they manage to cram the A-C, Gleaner, and Simplicity story into just 47 pages, which is more than I thought would be in here. Massey had around 70 pages I think. Get your copy while supplies last...lol.

"Martin currently sits on the Board of several organizations including PPG Industries."
I think I need to talk to my paint rep. Looking forward, Martin Richenhagen has positioned AGCO Corporation to continue the development of excellent solutions for its customers by CAREFULLY LISTENING TO THEIR NEEDS AND EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS, while supporting dealer profitability - a strategy which has been critical to AGCO's proven success. Who is carefully listening to needs and exceeding expectations? Edited by John_SWPA - 07 Dec 2009 at 11:32pm |

Would they pay me enough to take one off their hands. Might be able to use it to start a fire.
