Yesterday I spent a couple of hours at Coldwater Tractor in Hoquiam, WA. doing some tire-kickin'. I keep telling myself that first impressions don't count, but there is a veritable cornucopia of new and used tractors and equipment in various stages of, er – um, growth. Real nice folks though.

I went to the Coldwater Tractor website to see what it looked like Bob, and it was…interesting. They had a couple of pictures of flatbed trailers loaded with what looked to be a bunch of grey-market tractors, at least I saw rice paddy tires on a couple of them, and no new tractors shown. Their inventory pages showed that their most recent update was March 8th – 2011. And they had a page fora backhoe they sell – that was the funkiest looking 'hoe I've ever seen.
I'm not sure what was “growing” when you were there, but the website makes me think it must have been mold. I guess maybe they don't do much internet sales?

They had tons of new Chinese wood chippers that appeared to take up to 5″ limbs?
There were lots of brand new rock rakes and brush hogs.
There was a brand new tractor (I think Jinma) in the shop being fitted with one of their FEL's, and another older import tractor being fitted with one also.
Don't you find it curious that there isn't a street address on their website or business card? I mean, after all…
All those new rock rakes are going to seed in the blackberries.
They appear to have an ample inventory of used tractors and machines.

“that was the funkiest looking 'hoe I've ever seen.”
You've never been on San Pablo Avenue in Oakland have you?

Tin,
I don't need to go to Oakland – there's plenty of funky-lookin' hos right here in Paradise.
Your comment does beg the question of just what YOU were doing on San Pablo Ave – something you want to share with us?

I worked at a shop on San Pablo Ave. in Emeryville, a little strip of land between Oakland and Berkeley they actually call a city.The ones that were strung out walking down the middle of the street naked, yup, they were funky.
