The old standard recommendation of buying what you can get the best service on locally no longer holds true. The manufacturers are now forcing their dealers to get big or get out. Last winter JD shut their oldest dealer down due to inadequate sales. Any good dealer that you have now could be very easily either shut down or sold out to another one fifty miles away next week. The manufacturers encourage buyouts because it reduces competition so they and their dealers can reap higher profits. I used to support my local dealer even after he sold out to one from fifty miles away, but prices just escalated sky high, and the service department would take ten hours to do a job that you swear should have taken an hour. With any older tractor they can easily present you a bill for well over the value of your tractor. Any part that you need can now be bought on line. Many Ford owners now buy from Messicks in PA even though they may be a thousand miles away. As long as you stay away from electronics by going with older stuff you can fix it yourself or call in an independent who works out of his truck at your place.
