SE MT
But see, here's where I can't agree with that. It's not a learning curve. When my grandpa and great grandpa had As and Bs they RAN out and bought a new 2520 for ranch work because it was obviously better! not only was production increased, but reliability and serviceability wasn't. Same thing all through my childhood, folks traded every few years because the tractors were improving. That peaked about 15 years ago.

Maybe the newer tractors can cover more acreage, but the local farmers here have not traded up (won't) and simply say you can't cover more acreage when your tractor's broke down.... or I'm not making payments on a new tractor so I can't use it.


This business now of not being able to open the hood on a deere tractor under warranty or else it's voided is complete nonsense........ IVT transmissions? non serviceable, over $30,000? who seriously buys this stuff?
