I don’t know where Oldtanker gets the idea that it’s not a bad thing, but it is. There’s less competition for both employees and customers, and both get screwed as a result. Ag equip mechanic is a very skilled trade requiring in-depth knowledge on tractors, combines, hay equipment, tillage equipment, seeding equipment, etc. Beyond that you aren’t dealing with only equipment made in the last 5-10 years.. you’re dealing mostly with stuff made in the last 15 years, but some dealers also see a lot of older equipment, from 30 years old, to 50 years old. Deere is by far the worst for pushing consolidation of dealers.

CNH is mostly indifferent I think, if you want to, here’s some discounts, if not, as well as you’re doing well, and selling enough parts and wholegoods, we don’t care what you’re doing.

A sidesheet is sheetmetal to cover either the engine as in the case of early Oliver's, Massey-Harris' and many crawlers or the wiring and electrical components as in the case of the Massey-Harris Pony, Allis Chalmers' D Series (D-14, D-15, D-12, D-10, D-17, and D-19). The need for fabricating becomes obvious when you go to buy any of these
