I know how ya feel. My neighbor as a kid was the "real" farmer of the area, most of us had a couple small tractors to make hay and a few cows, he had 1600 acres and a huge barn full of mostly Case and Ford equipment. He'd always let us ride along in the combine while he was harvesting and even let me drive a couple of his big Ford's.
One night dad woke up and there was a orange glow coming in the window, that barn nearly a mile away was fully engulfed in flames, it burned to the ground and took everything with it by the time the fire dept made it out there. The only tractor he had left was the old Ford 5000 that he had sitting outside that night. By morning the tractors and combine were rusted iron hulks that looked like they might have been sitting in a fence row for 100 years. No paint, no rubber or plastic, and even much of the sheet metal had burned or melted off. I'll never forget the sight of that tough as nails ol farmer standing there crying.
