Kubota’s website mentions a 20% discount :eek: on tractors & implements (purchased simultaneously) for “members in good standing with the National Cutting Horse Association and other qualifying national or regional equine organizations.” I think the latter refers to e.g. APHA, perhaps AQHA & some others? Before contacting a dealer, I’d like to know whether anyone here has ever used this program. Certainly would be worth joining for thousands off. Or do the dealers play tricks, e.g. the discount is just another name for a price you could bargain for?
Also, I’m used to buying cars off the internet through Costco or my credit union, i.e. knowing in advance what I will pay and having a lot of information and options. Walking into a tractor dealership without a purchase support system is scaring me. There is only one Kubota dealer in my area. Is it worth going to other, 200±mile distant Kubota dealers, or even other brands locally, just to see what they might do? That’s one reason the Equine Membership Purchasing Program is so appealing, if it really works–should just be 20% off list. Sounds too good to be true.
Thanks
