FROM PAGE A1 personal experience, John Deere was “notorious” for making any warranty claim difficult. He recommended the county look at Komatsu or Caterpillar to find a company “con- sistent” in the warranty claim process. YOU JUST NEED TO PURCHASE “ONE” SALE ITEM TO RECEIVE OUR BEST PRICE! McCall said John Deere didn’t have issues when it came to its tractors, but the company should have “never got in the bulldoz- er business to start with.” Separately, Hart pro- duced a quote from Machinery Trader online for $200,000 less than the quoted price of the John Deere. “I don’t know what kind of package it is we have to have in the landfill, but I look at $200,000 as tearing down the Fair Play school or building another community fire department somewhere,” he said. “I don’t think we need to throw that kind of money away.” County administrator Amanda Brock said she spent several hours with Hart on Monday talking through his quote and what was missing from the item compared to what the county lined up. An official in the vehicle maintenance department said Hart’s quote came from the coast of Florida and that salt could affect the machine. The official said the piece of equipment is designed for landfill use and Hart’s find didn’t have the same undercarriage modification. Council chairman Ju- lian Davis said anything online could be hard to compare to the deal in hand and what equipment was included with it. Brock said the item went through the procure- ment process and received approval from officials in the vehicle maintenance and solid waste departments. Ultimately, council unanimously approved the purchase, which includes a five-year warranty. Officials said the dozer will push very heavy loads uphill at the county landfill at a time where more garbage is being thrown out due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The county is currently leasing the equipment for $70,000, and the leasing company has signed off on allowing that amount to be applied to the final purchase. After the meeting, Brock told The Journal the replacement had been budgeted for in the vehicle capital replacement fund. [email protected] | (864) 973-6685 | PAGE LABEL EVEN |
