It's their choice as to how they want to furnish their shop. It's not a matter of principle but a matter of how many jobs that they can expect in order to pay for the shop tools for the modern electronics that are found on some tractors. If a regular shop's bread and butter is pre-1990's tractors then they most likely are not going to buy much in the way of equipment for the newer mostly electronically controlled tractors. In the end if they have six jobs waiting when you come in the door and you need the job done now they are going to remain loyal to the first six jobs that came in ahead of you and perform them.

Nobody today is going to run a dealership for the "privilege" of driving a used pickup truck, tell mother it is another week of cheap meat at the market, and tell daughter that his coveralls need to be sewn again. People here complain about mega-dealerships but without the opportunity to make some money you would have to drive much further to price equipment, buy parts, or take things into the shop. Mom and pop dealerships in the hard scrabble areas where farms struggle to survive are the thing of the past.

My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
