SimpleTom 4 Posted January 15, 2008 Did anyone else receive their latest magazine? I was reading the Simplicity article and it seems that my magazine is missing the some pages. The paragraph starts on one page with this sentence: "To aid in driver comfort, Simplicity designed two major features to" Then the next page continues with this: "stalled to quiet the engine noise. The placement of the engine on the frame......" Is this like everyone elses or is mine missing some pages? Tom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skunkhome 0 Posted January 15, 2008 Took me a while to figure it out too but the article is complete. They just got one of the paragraphs out of order. When you get to the bottom of the column just go to the top of the column and read that paragraph then got to top of next page. Looks like they forgot the copy reader.

D-17_Dave 12 Posted January 15, 2008 After they ran the article last issue on the Deere 400 series and said the 400 was the first sub-compact on the market I'm about ready to let my subscription run out. Is there no one in the world of Deere that will admit that the 400 is their version of the sub-compact line behind the Powermax line from Simplicity/AC?? They haven't done anything they told me they were going to do with articles and resources. Frankly I'm disappointed with them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chris727 1,851 Posted January 15, 2008 I'm not a subscriber but I know a few local subscribers and have seen their copies, looks OK to me but I've heard that they don't write the articles themselves, they ask the collectors who want to be featured to write their own articles? If that is true, then that is why some articles would sound one-sided. The powermaxes were introduced around 72, the jd 400 wasn't introduced until 75 and it was not the first of its kind, I found this on WFM's description of the 400: "Deere obviously introduced the 400 to take on all the competition, which at that time was primarily Bolen’s HT-20."

I think it definitely has a green bent which is understandable considering who Hapco is but has some decent articles. I really liked the article on the Ingersoll tractors this month. They could use a good copy reader. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cudakid67 0 Posted January 17, 2008 When did you all get your latest issue? The last one I got was the holiday one with the red patio on the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
