Local Ram Dealer Joins Agricultural Elite
Bud's Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram Achieves Certified Agriculture Status
Celina, OH - When Ram trucks celebrated America's farm and ranch families with a two minute commercial
during Super Bowl XLVII, they created a relationship with those families like no other truck maker ever had.
Today, Ram dealers are proud to announce the local fulfillment of that global promise. Having completed an
agriculture awareness curriculum endorsed by the National Agriculture In The Classroom Organization, Ram
Trucks welcomes Bud's Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram to the ranks of Certified Agriculture Dealership. A
first of its kind in the truck industry, this certification lets the area's more than 2000 farm & ranch families
know the dealership understands what makes their business different. It also signals the dealership's commitment
to the timing of wheat and oat harvest, calving season and third cutting hay by adjusting operations
to accommodate the demands of each commodity, and every season.
To become a Ram Certified Agriculture Dealership, Bud's Ram was required to commit a minimum of three
team members to successfully completing the curriculum prepared by its agriculture partners. The program
recommended one each from Sales, Parts and Service. The Ram Certified Agriculture Specialists at
Bud's are: Matt Hamilton, Chris Zibrida, Jordan Wendel, Ed Rump, Kyle Dresher, and Mark Lochtefeld.
With the initial curriculum complete, the Bud's Ag Team will now participate in continuing education that extends
their knowledge of everything important to Ohio agriculture, as it happens in real time. Ongoing education,
combined with what Specialists learned through the Ag Awareness curriculum, will allow this dealership
to become an educated partner with area agriculture by pro-actively anticipating and meeting the
changing demands of its family farm and ranch customers.
As part of being Certified Agriculture, The Ram Truck brand has also provided their Celina, OH dealer with
some hard core tools designed specifically to help farmers and ranchers gain efficiency and find more profits
in their farming operation. Its called Ram AgPack. In short ... if the customer uses Ram's $500 Farmers In
America bonus cash, that farm and ranch customer is then qualified for nearly $7500 of AG-SPECIFIC products
that won't cost them anything extra.
Field & pasture forecasting services. Crop nutrition products. Ag drone technology. An agriculture "care
package" bundled with the most durable truck money can buy and specialists trained specifically to know
