Well, I guess My family is in the minority. I'm the third generation to farm our land with equipment that Grandpa bought. I value my equipment as priceless. My son and daughter in law have a great interest in the land. They have no desire to get "new" equipment. The financing and all would not be in their best interest.
Me I would rather use older tractors and equipment than be saddled with the debt that comes along with new stuff. Besides, the new stuff just is not built anywhere as bullet proof as equipment from the 50's and 60's.
All my tractors were built in the 50's and run better than and work when my neighbors newer are broke down. I do admit that I take the time to maintain and repair them when they show signs of needing it.
Also I own a 1968 Chevelle SS396 that my son and I are going to finish restoring when he gets off active duty with the Army. (He wants the car, but it's mine until I'm pushing up daisy's).
In conclusion I think a lot of what the newer generation thinks about old iron may be because of the influence of the parents.
