the point of the nice restored Mta going back to farm work kinda points to the decline in antique tractors. have seen some other amish using some pretty nice looking restored antiques that were probably a similar situation. they wouldn't spend much $ on a tractor so it was probably pretty cheap at auction.
on the amish.. yeah all depends on their bishop.

some have cell phones, some don't. not much consistency and the different groups kinda fight amongst themselves. We know some good ones and know some that are the biggest crooks you'd ever run across. my biggest frustration is they've inflated the local real estate values and the horses really tear up the roads and the manure tends to help eat the cars out besides making a mess. hate to be a tire repair guy around here as you will have your hands in horse crap.
