U.S. Farmers Are Being Bled by the Tractor Monopol...

"Platform flexibility" is code for "charge extra for every feature". If you hear those words you know the "base" price they quote you is bullshit and they're going to nickle and dime you for every damn feature, like the steering wheel and brakes.
