I have to disagree. Here, west MN, most guys still around are larger operation. Kids growing up here on farms don't see much old stuff unless dad takes em to a show. Oldest tractors I know of in day to day use as a primary tractor is early to mid 80's. Only a couple of older hobby guys are using anything older. We have guys who did grown up around tractors from the 40's and 50's. They are called grandpa by the kids being raised on farms today. Their kids grew up on tractors built in the late 50's, 60's and 70's. Then along came the 80's and a heck of a lot of farm kids became town kids real fast cutting that link. Heck I was in the Army most of the time my 2 oldest boys were growing up. But they did get to spend time with my dad on the farm. Both talk with fond memories of spending time on tractors. My younger 2 boys? Well one was 2 when grandpa retired from farming and sold off the equipment. They other hadn't been born. Neither cares one little bit about tractors and find them very boring.
