If you can’t repair it on your own after your warranty expires, the heap of metal is worth much less.

John Deere is rapidly accelerating depreciation.

There are a bunch of Youtube videos on the lengths companies go to to keep you from working on stuff. Printers won’t let you refill your own ink cartridges because they are only making 10,000% profit on ink. John Deere and Apple (poor broke Apple) are very aggressive to keep your paws on their stuff (wait a minute I paid for this fair and square).

Henry Ford supposedly said that he would give his cars away free if he could force everyone to come to him for repairs and maintenance.

I’m sure our Chicom overlords will get right on it.

My brother owns an excavation company and depends on his equipment to work all the time. He gave up on Deere and Cat several years ago, he had the same problems. He has Volvo and Komatsu equipment now with very few problems.

That is the main reason why I will NOT buy a John Deere tractor, if I can afford one.

You CAN NOT do any repairs yourself.
