Customer Testimonial: Tony & Mary Tritt

We keep going back to Sunsouth for no other reason but the people and the quality of products that we're receiving.

My name is Tony Trent. This is Mary. We live here in Carrollton, Georgia. We're primarily in the real estate business, but we're fortunate enough to get out here and farm for the fun of it. The equipment we have out here makes the cattle business way easier. We're new to cow calf operation and raising beef, so operating around the farm makes life way better that way. We use a skid steer and the tractor a lot in our real estate business. When we're buying property, we take it over and mulch up land, clear property, haul things, move trash. I mean, we use it in all facets of our life, but it makes the business world way, way, way better because now we don't have to pay somebody to come out and do those things. When I was young, my father's family was in the dairy business in Virginia. And I remember as a kid going out there and they'd have just John Deere equipment all across the land. And I always fantasize one day about owning some green and yellow tractors. So when we bought this place out here, as Mary will tell you, it just made all the sense in the world. It checks two boxes, one, it's extremely convenient. They're right up the street and secondarily it looks like the tractors we like them to look like. What we've learned in time is they're wonderful pieces of equipment. So it goes beyond just those things. But that's primarily the two boxes that needed to be checked.

And from there, I mean, we moved out to this location, purchased the land probably about three years ago. And we found that our friends over at the John Deere dealership made service so easy. So not only is it a convenient location, being able to go service our equipment, the hands on expertise, if there's ever a problem, being able to have questions answered about our equipment, you know, additional ways of using the equipment. It's all answered by having this convenient location and using the John Deere products, moving out and having this cow calf operation. We were new to the process and when we say new. He spent time as a child on these pieces of equipment. I had not. They're all easy to use. I can go out there, tend to our animals, I can cut the hay, even things down to our mower. It's fast and efficient, it's user friendly. You notice a consistent theme within, within each of the pieces of equipment. So by owning the same type of product over and over again. There's similarities where it becomes very user friendly for someone like me to be.

Able to oper so parts and service is extremely important. Equipment is equipment. It's like houses, trucks, cars, anything you buy in time you need help, things break down. There's problems we found with our relationship with John Deere. It's always just a simple phone call away. People will drive right down to the farm, hop on a piece of equipment and show us how we're doing it wrong or fix the problem that we've created. It's the key to it. Once you get the product that's great. You buy the product without the service, without the parts, without that piece of it which ties a bow around the whole relationship. It's probably the most important, important part. Just can't say enough great things about the team up there. We feel very fortunate to be a part of the relationship we have with them and I can't see us ever using another piece of equipment.
