We had to put a flat bed on the work truck last week or so, and the welder and I got to talking about Ford tractors when my dad popped in about New Holland being a good tractor to which I basically said "Same thing."
If memory serves, Ford tractors were previously produced by Fiat up until their contract to use the Ford name expired and their tractors started carrying the New Holland name. We started laughing when we realized that Chrysler has their hand in Fiat...thus if Fiat still had rights to the Ford name for their tractors, in a stretched, round-about way, Chrysler would have ties to a Ford product.
...I'm a Ford guy. >.>
The OEM world is weird that way no? International Harvester sold off their ag business division to Case Corporation, to later become Navistar International (the truck manufacturer) while Case then became Case-IH. Fiat acquired the Ford-New Holland merger along with Case-IH, and later became CNH (Case-New-Holland.) So you have these weird situations where these mergers and partnerships end up creating odd business histories of brands one never thinks have any real relationships. :p
The same thing can be said about the Deere-Hitachi-Kenki partnership, or the long history of JLG/Grove in the airlift market.
Yeah I think I have that because I absolutely hate talking to people on the phone, texting and chat support >_>b If someone calls it's fine though but making that call first sucks lol
I do this stuff in stores too though, I don't wanna talk to the people working there. I find what I need, pay, and leave. If I can't find it I'd rather walk around until I find do or find something else that interests me than talk to the employees lol
Backread and saw this :|
I have been back in electronics this past week(layaway really). I would rather not talk to the customer... but we get forced to talk to them. I just want to walk around and help when they actually need help not walk up to them and do the "Excuse me, do you need any help?" or "Have you found what you are looking for?" >_> I just wanna be behind a counter and not have to make awkward conversation.

"Some people feel that kind of electronic involvement takes something special away from the driving experience, but anyone who’s actually driven a GT-R knows that isn’t the case at all.
Yes, there is a particular sense of satisfaction gained from taming a horsepower monster, but there’s also extreme pleasure in hammering through corners at the speed of sound—and living to tell your friends about it."
I've actually driven a couple of GT-R's and a few GTS/GTS-T's and they really aren't anything that special in factory form. I've never driven a heavily modified one, though.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
