Hello,
i am aware that the dealer currently stocks new equipment of all categories, but I think it would be rather interesting if we could place custom orders for equipment through the dealer. For example, if I was looking to buy a Massey Ferguson 7724S, I would order one to my exacting specifications through the dealer. This would only apply to equipment currently in production...
Yes, we can do this through the in-game store, but I think it would be interesting to have on here, as it could simulate waiting for delivery, and production etc. Also, there could be dealer-only offers on specific features, such as discounts on wheel setups, or cheaper prices periodically for the brand...
Thanks for reading...

So.. I kinda like this idea.. but I dont like the idea of having somewhere else I have to list stuff.. We could think of it more as an ordering area but the sales and demo areas are still the places where these would be listed.. another thing, I could list mostly stock items and I will take special orders here? This would give me a chance to log and be able to list stuff not from the mobhub as well.. I really dont frequent enough mod sites (pretty well none honestly) for someone doing something like this I really just dont have the time and desire to browse an endless list(s) of mods to find maybe a few that are something that I would like and then having to download and test it.. I just use giants modhub for most things as I like the convenience of it. So doing this, if you have a mod you want listed, especially 3rd party, include the link.. if not, just let me know exactly what you are looking for and let me know if its on the hub or in game

I am actually really enjoying this part.. its way more efficient for me than listing a bunch of random stuff that probably wont sell resulting in a lot of wasted time, plus its way more fun to roleplay a lil story about custom options and stuff.. Now I find myself wondering if we are game for another restructure on how the dealership works... if you guys would at least entertain hearing my idea, let me know

I'm game for anything that will keep things happening here. Seasons release on console seems to have had a negative impact on the community trader. So anything that can keep people active is a great idea in my books. You decide on the best COA from your point and I'm sure we will let you know if we like it or not

Let me get some coffee in me and I would outline my idea as it stands now.. then you guys can offer feedback and ideas if you would like.. I *think* most of you will like the idea and even may appeal a bit to those of you who hate the dealership in its current form

Well, if we place an order for equipment, having a trade in will let you have a stock of used equipment to sell aswell š Like we did with the same/case deal.
Those trade ins hopefully will have a short turn around aswell

so.. an outline of my idea.. no more "random" items for sale.. instead we do "orders".. in these orders you may get varying degrees of discount but you will be able to order anything you need.. on pc (sadly there is no way to do this for console ) you could "custom" order things like with those increased capacities on those tippers earlier or maybe you would like a few extra mph out of a seeder or header (everyone is welcomed to play how they want and I will do what I can to accommodate).. and yes, I think doing trade ins will be a big thing.. my wife and I were already talking about that.. and I will relist them on the sales floor for an appropriate and fair price.. there will still be holiday sales and specials.. when holidays are far in between, we can bring in a good ol firesale.. there are some more fine details but that is the bulk of the idea.. overall I think this is more in line with how a dealership would work.. and it takes a huge burden off me.. less wasted time as I wouldnt have to worry about listing stuff people just dont want as often.. and doing it this way might very well add some balance with the slower pace of more people using seasons now but as always I am open to feedback and suggestions.. if I get none, I will assume everyone is cool with the idea and start the small changes needed to make it work

also.. what I mean by "specials" is.. say.. stoll or case or whatever hosts a sale.. I will list a handful of these brand or type of items for sale with a nice rebate.. holiday sales will be more random as will firesales

also, from my end this would save a lot of work with the pricing thing.. just state if you are on console and I can work out the math for getting the rebate.. if not, I dont have to worry about it as pc players can very easily adjust their funds to reflect any rebate offered without the extra steps.. this alone will save me time allowing me to more readily and willingly focus on other things for the forum so we can actually start to grow again.. our growth has all but stopped.. we get a few new members here and there which I am beyond thankful for but we all know this will be way more enjoyable for all of us once I am able to expand and advertise on other platforms.. more users means more sales, seasons or not

You have got this sorted. I like your plans. Seems like the best COA to me
