Well, not just with tractors, cars, and trucks ...... but all of this has crept into every aspect of your daily life. Remember the old low-efficiency forced air gas furnaces? Crappy efficiency compared to stuff today BUT you could go years and years and years and only worry about squirrel cage bearings, an inexpensive motor (that you could buy at the local hardware store) and a belt. Maybe a thermocouple if you were unlucky and after 30 years, maybe a heat exchanger issue and you bought a new furnace.. Plus everything was accessible through an easily removable panel.
Fast forward to the last twenty years or so, mid-efficiency furnaces (around 80% efficient) and now high-efficiency furnaces (95%+ efficiency today) re the norm. As a matter of fact, you can't even legally buy and install a mid-efficiency furnace up here in Canada anymore. the BIG issue is that a guy like you or I cannot even dream of fixing anything himself for the most part except for some simple cleaning of a flame sensor or ignitor. Not only are parts outrageous in cost but with all the advancements in efficiency comes a huge drop in reliability and dependability. The damned things shut down or take timeouts at 20 below zero and that isn't much fun where I live.
