Hawk Hire Purchases 20 McCormick Tractors
Fri 8/06/2012
A consignment of 20 new McCormick tractors is being handed over to one of Britain’s leading tractor rental companies.Hawk Tractors will supply the MTX and XTX six-cylinder machines to farmers and contractors throughout Britain as part of a fleet that continues to expand to meet demand for short- and long-term hire.
The McCormick additions to Hawk’s 2012 fleet comprise ten each of the 141hp MTX150 and 171/183hp XTX185 XtraSpeed models.
The tractors are supplied through McCormick dealers who then provide local parts, service and repair back-up. For customers in areas lacking a McCormick dealer, Hawk’s own team of 15 regionally-based technicians provide this support.
“One question we’re always asked by potential hire customers is: ‘How good’s your service?’ which really comes down to the dealer involved,” says John Smith. “In our experience, the McCormick dealers who work with us have always provided good back-up, treating the tractor and customer as one of their own.”
As for the tractors themselves, Mr Smith says he is pleased to have McCormick machines in the fleet to maintain a long association with the make and intends adding more in the coming years.
“A lot of our regular customers specifically ask for McCormick tractors because they know they’ll get a machine that performs as well as anything else in the field and has easily recognisable, intuitive controls,” he points out. “That makes it easy for drivers to familiarise themselves with the machines and get the best out of them from the start.”
