I can think of a dozen reasons, some good some bad. When I was working full time off the farm I bought new equipment as soon as I started having major repair issues. I couldnt waste time fixing something when I needed to be using it. Typically, I was trading about every 5 years, except tractors. Of them I kept a spare to get me through a breakdown. Was it efficient, probably not but time was my most limiting resource. Now both time and money are limiting, probably money more so. I debated long and hard on a new mower this year. Decided to take a pass. I just cant see dropping that much money when my 5 year disc mower does a good job. My tractors hail from the 70s-90s. In my system thats the best balance of cost and reliability. The oldest probably doesnt get 100 hrs a year and the newest maybe 200. Skid loader gets the most, its an early 90s vintage.
