Comfort, convenience and productivity are much higher now than before. The newer stuff is just as reliable as it used to be in the past. Tollerances are much tighter now. Anything we would have bought in the 80s would have 20,000-30,000 hours on it anyway. The last tractor we bought new in novemeber will have 1000 hours tomorrow. Never broke down. 2001 JD 7210 with 5700+ hours has not had ANY problerms in the last 3000 hours(3 years).

I have found that with newer tractors, if something breaks it is usually something mechanical that would have broken on an older tractor too. Rarely somethign electrical or computer related.
