Closest dealer is over an hour drive. I have 3 dealers within a 2 hour drive. I called all three and nobody had them in stock and could not give me an eta on if or when they may get them. Sherman Tractor is great to work with.
Yeah, most don't stock stuff like that I don't think and if you have to drive that far, you are better off just having them shipped for sure.
I'm lucky my dealer is 26 miles away and I go for coffee once in awhile. I have also delivered a few Roxor's for him and did a trade shoe for him cause he couldn't make it. I do little advertising video clips for his Facebook page also.
It's nice Sherwood offers the parts at MSRP and stock lots.
I know talking to my dealer that their parts order has to be over a certain dollar value to qualify for free shipping from Roxor, and it's not a real high number. I needed a handle for my tailgate and he just put it on the list and when he got a big enough order, he put it through, otherwise they would have been charged shipping on it. The handle was under $2.00 I think.
