 I thought that this was clever. We were at a DynaGro field day this Saturday and this was on display there. The dealer put a AGCO decal on a new Massey tractor. Laker Farm Implement Service must have some guts doing this! More power to them! P.S. Laker's was an Allis dealer. ------------- 1956 WD45 Narrow Front Factory Power Steering, 1953 WD Wide Front Allis Express in Muncie, IN |

| Might have better chance of selling that way and even better, IMO, if it were orange. |

Someone should take one of the ORANGE AGCOs and have decals made that say AC instead. ------------- 1937 WC, 1950 CA, 1959 D14, 1967 190XT, 2006 Ram 3500 |

| Our AGCO dealer had to paint a NEW red tractor orange. The man wanted a new orange tractor, now he has one. The dealer now has MF logos on his pickup from that tractor. |

| Ignoring color -- that looks like a really nice machine. |

If / when I can afford a new tractor that would be the only way I'd buy an AGCO tractor. My local dealer said that back in the Duetz era they painted a few green tractors orange to make the sale, whatever it takes. BTW one of the mechanics says orange plastic is an option for the current tractors, I guess for state or industrial use. So you can order an orange tractor.
