Some of that old equipment never would wear out as long as parts were available and if they had any kind of care.
--- The new stuff is cheaply made,plastics,electronics, not going to hold up to the long haul it is faster and more comfortable. Some people must have lots of money to waste as I see a lot of new expensive equipment
lawn mowers and small tractors mostly around my area and they don't take care of it and let it sit out. The local JD dealers used lawn mower lot looks like junk row on late model mowers. I bought a 12 year old one from an individual it had some good care as it still looks and runs good. My dad has a compact tractor he bought new in 1982 and it still looks like new with over 2000 hrs on it.
--- I can see some advantage to lighten up cars as to save gas to move a heavy car ,but these new tractors are lightened up so much you can't do any work with them unless you hang on lots of weights. New and improved ??? NOT SO !
