Union goons do it again!
I bought a D105 new years ago, sold it just before I moved from the mountains. Only 80 hours on it, it was "ok" nothing special, sometimes hard to get in the right gear.
The deck was considerably heavier than the standard MTD's and it had zerk fittings. .

Is there a link to a real news source about this? I did a search and all I found was statements that they're rejecting DEI and other woke bullshit:

According to this, not ALL products, just truck loaders and skid loaders.

Other than the recall, all the other stuff she is bitching has been common knowledge for the last three months, you can bet your ass that moving production to Mexico is just the beginning, they are starting off with smaller equipment but I'm pretty sure larger products will follow. This is the result when you go on strike, they can thank the UAW for this gift and NAFTA.

why did I just waste my time watching any of that BS?..JD has not actually manufactured any tractor under about 50HP in gawd knows how many years!!!
I asked a Juan Deere rep about 5 years ago if they produced any tractors in the USA in the 100hp range or below. His response was they “assemble” some smaller tractors here in the USA. Meaning the tractor engine/transmission arrives in a crate from a foreign country along with the other pieces to then be assembled by Juan Deere here in the US and trucked out to the dealers for sale.

And to add to that...as far as I know, their "small garden tractors" are nothing but MTDs in green paint. Like all the rest of the "brand names".

We sell Mi-T-M pressure washers at the hardware store. The Mi-T-M rep told me they manufacture the same pressure washers for JD, just a different paint color. And more money I’m sure.
