I believe the last facility Agco had at the NI works in Coldwater, Ohio was a parts depot and I'm pretty certain that is also gone.

Considered NI because the family used and I also liked the product. Furthermore it was within a 100 miles or so of the home farm, which would allow the desired weekend forays.
