You wouldn't had you been in the market for a tractor 15 years ago. Unfixable black box electronics has been a part of farm machinery for quite a while now.

The reason people talk about working on older cars/trucks/tractors as easier, isn't because they are to incompetent to work with the electronics, it's because for the most part they are a black box.
