When I was there 3 years ago they were all out everywhere as well. Still trying to break into the american market.
yeah, a rep told me that they have a small percentage of the US market, which is the biggest in the world. they do real great overseas. they're the 3rd biggest equipment maker in the world.
thats why they're investing heavily in the US. they built a factory in georgia that builds backhoes, skidsteers, and telehandlers.
they spent more money at conexpo, than even Bauma, which is a show held in germany that drew a half-million people last year, compared to conexpo which drew 144,000 people.
i'd hate to guess how much jcb spent at conexpo.
i like the fact that jcb is family owned, and not just some corporation. the chairman and his son were at the show, and you could actually go up to them and talk to them.
