part prices (was Re: [AT] OT Hay question

[Mike Sloane]

When I worked for a NH dealer a couple of years ago, we noticed the same 
phenomenon. And the strange part is that Case IH and New Holland are all 
part of the same company. If you look at their tractor, skid steer, and 
implement lines, you will notice that the only differences are that they 
have different colors model numbers - they all come off the same 
manufacturing lines! And the parts tags are starting to have a "CNH" 
logo. Yet, NH prices are regularly lower than IH and much lower than 
Case. Go figure.
