It’s just hard to believe you can buy a good, tough running tractor for 1/8th the cost of new! You do need to have $10,000 in reserve for a big repair, and the will to fix smaller issues, but that’s still a heck of a lot less.
You can do the same with cars, trucks, & machine tools too.
I'm not sure why, but we all know it's true. All it takes is will.
Economically I don't understand what happens in the future when today anyone can buy a used machine that can be repaired to be better than new for so little total cost.
