Fendt is considered the cream of the crop around here, at least as far as tractors go, but the dealer network is sparse. I'd run into several Deere dealerships before finally getting to the Fendt dealer.

All brands break. If you don't have easy access to parts, it's harder sell. Farmers don't want machines they can't easily fix and so Deere wins on that front. The CaseIH dealer network is just as strong, so that's the actual competition for Deere in these parts.
