Lots to unpack,
Identify the store that lacked tractor service and parts availability? OK? The incident w/ the tractor wheel lacks CREDIBILITY w/o circumstances, make and model of tractor, approximate date of incident. Deere large AG tractors are fine however the E series display QC issues. The homeowner/hobby farmer models are overpriced and under equipped. Many are deere in paint scheme only.
A true "farmer" might know that cattle do NOT clear brush, build trails/refurbish driveways, or improve landscape surfaces.
Mike Morgan is NOT in the firewood business. He is former heavy highway tradesman, now employed in oil/gas industry. Firewood collection benefits his family, relatives, close friends.
It does sound as though you watched only intermittent segments of Mike's videos, as information you report is wholly inaccurate. Mike has demonstrated integrity, he has yet to edit any content to conceal accurate reviews. If you feel otherwise, he would be the first to advise you cease watching.
The deere implements referenced are not described? Again many implements for residential/light commercial use are 3rd party vendor items, many marketed through the frontier division. These vendors manufacturer implements under their own name and various others. NOT aware of any unique connection features associated w/ deere tractors/labeled implements.?
Perhaps you refer to the QA coupler on the small tractor loaders that PENALIZE owners by requiring them to only attach implements w/ this proprietary coupling arrangement? This action denies deere owners the ability to use universal SSQA attachments.
The post (yours) criticizes advancements in tractor feature comforts, technology, convenience. Many tractor owners desire these features, thus the increased popularity. It is certainly your choice to continue living in the deere 2 cylinder era and driving a model A ford.
