Speaking as someone who lives in a farming community... Usually there are very few/one option for that size of (tractor|combine) in the area, and if it's JD, that's what you've got to get. As others have said, you can't wait for days when the crop is ready to harvest while a part ships from a few hundred miles away. Well, sometimes you still have to, but you want to minimize that. Also, you don't have to be "Big Ag" sized to need a 6 figure piece of equipment. Not at all.
