Nah I dont live in an imaginary world I just live in the good old US of A, I am not interested in argueing with you birddog as there is no reason to. JD "rules" aka has the greates market share and will into the future. It's all about dealer support, why drive by 3-4 JD dealers to get to some other brandIJ Maybe JD isnt the latest and greatest but it shure as hell gets the job done.
