People in business with machinery have made the mistake of buying all one brand and sticking to it exclusively - and then get treated badly by the manufacturer, because they rarely return the customer loyalty.
I never did, I bought Cat and Komatsu, and made sure Cat paid dearly for treating me like a doormat.
Well I guess I am in the small minority. Keeping our little fleet all Cat yellow has done well for us for support from not only the dealer but from Cat corp.
Last time I saw a commie sales rep was 2015. Actually it was the sales manager that stopped by the job and we had a nice chat. I gave him my card and said I would like to open an account, just email the paperwork. Didn't receive anything..
We have a cash account at the commie dealer for aftermarket items. It's just as easy to put it on the Amex and gain the points than fool with a formal charge account. Still haven't talked to a salesman, I guess they don't need the business.
