the current tractors, like cars and trucks , are going to be at the mercy of their electronics, so much like our computers, after so many years they are no longer supported, same thing happening with cars and trucks parts are no longer being supplied .

They didn't expect them to last 10 years back then. Many of them still running. They should be very proud of their hard work. But to your original point, scrap prices will probably determine how long some of us will have access to parts.
