What do you guys think about AGCO being a feature ? Seems like if a show is going to do this to me, why even have a feature ? I mean you would be including Allis Chalmers, Oliver, Minneapolis Moline, White, Ferguson, Massey Harris, Coop, and Cockshutt. Pretty much every brand but Deere, Case, IH, and Ford. That brings another thought, are shows going to feature Case/IH/New Holland in the future ? Is there going to be a point in the future where there are three features: John Deere, Case/IH/New Holland, and AGCO. I hope not. ------------- Randy Freshour,Member Indiana AC Partners, http://www.rumelyallis.com" rel="nofollow - http://www.rumelyallis.com |

| You're too late Randy. The club up in Union Grove WI hosted an AGCO feature show in 2007. MM, MH, Oliver and AC. It was great up until some representative from AGCO said, "We will never get rid of Orange"! Wonder if he is still working for them? |

If the show or area is dominated by JD and IH, featuring everything in AGCO's heritage can be a good thing. Some places I could still see the big feature being outnumbered by the red and green ones. Some guys need an incentive to bring their other brands out of hiding when the big 2 are dominant. karl f

Karl, you need to come to Penfield then. There is usually 400-600 SOB when the IH and Deere guys are in town.

| Hello John Some of our members have personal connections with AGCO from old Allis FRIENDS. We had good interest/support from AGCO, both the GOTO in 05 and the AGCO show in 07. I don't know if there will be any help for the CENTURY OF ALLIS CHALMERS AGRICULTURE, that we will have in SEPT 2014, but we are planning on a " REALLY BIG SHOW" |

Every domestic brand that I can think of falls under either AGCO, JD, or CNH. JD is just JD. CNH would include Ford, Case, IH, and I'm sure others. AGCO has more of brands (foreign and domestic) under their umbrella than any of the others. |
