Page One Ad in the Farmer & Rancher Exchange, published in Spearfish, N.D.
An enterprising car dealership in South Dakota has come up with a program even more fitting than Cash for Clunkers for its farm customers -- "Cows for Cars!"
It's a real program, advertised in the Farmer & Rancher Exchange newspaper, and promoted on Page One.
And you have to give credit to some creative thinkers at the dealership that sells Jeep, Ford, Chrysler, Dodge and Mercury. "Hoof on it for all the details on this udderly great promo!" the ad reads.
And why not? A good steer or heifer is just as good as cash in the agricultural setting of rural America, and as the ad reads, "Bring in your cows and we'll work out a trade on a new or pre-owned vehicle."
No cows? Scott Peterson Motors says come on in anyway, "We'll trade for just about anything." And what the heck, you get to "Shoot the bull with our salesmen," and make a deal.
I like to read the local papers when I'm traveling, and during a recent pheasant hunt up to South Dakota, this ad jumped right out at me. I don't really know how many cows were traded in ... but I'm sure it got the local residents thinking about making a deal if nothing else.
