Snakebit ZTR Experience & A Revenue Opportunity with ‘Guys Like Me’
In this blog from Rural Lifestyle Dealer, Mike Lessiter explains how a recent ZTR repair had him feeling like Lewis Skolnick (of Revenge of the Nerds fame) … “I’m a ‘homeowner’ equipment customer. I just found that out tonight. We have news for you beautiful equipment dealers. There's a lot more of us than there are of you. To my fellow homeowners, you might've been called a yuppie, or a weekend warrior, or a pretend farmer.

Titan Machinery Brings Mental Health Awareness Month into Focus
In its latest blog, Titan Machinery brings attention to Mental Health Awareness Month, writing, Farmers have been found to be a part of the population who typically don't seek help despite studies showing a higher need for it. Their occupation is a part of their core identity, and the factors contributing to a farmer's behavioral health—and their family's—are both apparent and extensive.
