It is many different factors, but one that always baffles me is the bone heads that own some of the larger tractor dealerships.

There was a green tractor dealer in the town where my farm is for many years and it did very well. Aside from a good core famer business for tractor and inplement sales, they had built a very nice and profitable lawn mower business.
