Update To Crate Tractor Purchase Goes Sour TRACTORS Miscellaneous 33-4-41 In regard to the story in your last issue, "Crate Tractor Purchase Goes Sour", I also ordered a tractor from John and Linda Nelson at the Nelson Equipment Corporation, also known as the Tractor Connection.
I was interested in these "kit tractors" because they were half the price of any new tractor in our area. On May 30th, 2008, we sent half the money, about $8,000. The company kept telling us everything was good and that our tractor would be on the way once they received the second half of the money, which we sent at the end of June.
After that, we kept calling and got very little response. When they did respond to us, they kept saying everything was fine. Almost a year later, Linda Nelson told us the company was shutting down and that we would not receive our tractor. In fact, they sent out a letter saying that they had taken deposits of $242,044 as downpayment for 18 tractors, which would not be delivered.
I'd like to hear from anyone else who was burned by this company. We are working with the Oregon attorney general's office to investigate possible fraud by this company. (Mike Pacheco, 945 Mud Lane, Ignacio, Colo. 81137 ph 970 749-8995)
