As for your slander of a fellow farmer I am inclined to show my neigbours this and word will spread from there and I think it is time a current affair had a yak with FORD to find out why a fellow farmer was asked if he was a cattle duffer, Then be called a stupid "beep" by someone in the game for 16 years...Waiting your reply and be careful....Talk about the kettle callling the pot black...Mate, you need to take a look at the situation at hand. The Dealer Principal was called a "typical car salesman thief" do you reckon he should say "Oh, yeah you're right, I am an as*hole, sorry mate". Gimme a break...If farmers were constantly copping an ear bashing as "cattle duffers" and this comment simply fuelled the fire, sure, you have a right to be pissed. Let me ask you this though, when it came time to sell your cattle/sheep/grain/feed etc would you say to the buyer "Yeah, you can buy it for $250 a head, but I guess it only owes me $95 so you might as well just give me $95"Awaiting your reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
