Hiloman, this is very, very true. Margins are so low on equipment that the after sales market is the best place to make any profit. The sales guy who can also get his fair share of this is without any doubt a more valuable employee. In fact it is a win-win situation, if truck sales numbers are down, then this demonstrates he is still winning some type of business.
