[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1825411, member: 19817"] So you own, house, and maintain 3 balers? Do any one of them have the capacity and reliability of a single newer machine? I own mostly 30+ year old tractors which are great for the "old non electronic reliability" except for the fact that parts are getting harder to procure and more costly. No running to the dealer for parts, it can turn into a worldwide internet search. Also the newer tractors are more ergonomic, user friendly, fuel efficient, and comfortable. I can spend 20 hours in my 2009 tractor with full suspension cab and axle and not feel like I went 8 seconds on a bull, all while burning less fuel than its 30yo counterpart and getting more done. Older equipment has its pluses. But it typically can't compete in terms of efficiency, and user comfort. [/QUOTE]
