Not really. The topic was "Equipment/Tractor you bought you wish you had NOT!!!". Did not ask what the problems were or what kept it from being repaired nor did it ask what the final outcome was.
Heck I bought a car in 78 that started to be a nickel and dime car. I dumped it before I had too much into it. Same with a tractor. It broke, I didn't like the features on it, wasn't really worth fixing, I got rid of it.
I haven't seen anyone say an entire brand was bad, just their experiences with something they own/had owned. Like there have been a couple of post about 20 series JD's. No one claimed the entire line was bad, just they got a problem tractor.
What keeps some from being repaired? Reoccurring problems for one. Getting out from under it before too much is sunk into it is another reason to get rid of things. You are going to fault a person for not getting so deep into a piece of equipment that they can't afford to walk away from it? I had a round baler I did that with along with a haybine. I was wanting to upgrade both and when expensive breakdowns occurred I used that as motivation to replace both. Both with the CaseIH name on them but not manufactured by CaseIH. Didn't know I was supposed to get a group opinion before getting rid of those 2 items.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
