If you use the tractor then it has been worth it. I have been preached to about the folly of owning a 45 hp utility tractor with loader for years...it'll never pay for itself, blah, blah, blah....after every hurricane for the last 25 years it has shouldered the burden of cleanup, how much would that of cost? It cuts around 10 acres 2-3 times in the growing season-how much would that have cost? Working on vehicles and equipment can be a pain, if parts and shop availability are a problem yeah maybe time to give it up. But if you own property, and have to maintain it you need to consider the down side of not owning the means to do the work. As to sentimentalism...well maybe nobody wants to get into the ugliness of hearing that tractors mine not yours...and the family knows that once that equipment leaves the family they will never be able to acquire their own. Seen that a lot.
