Getting harder to get on-farm tractor tire service in my area, especially if you have fluid filled tires. I need to get the rear tires replaced on my Farmall M. It's been awhile since I last needed this. Called my usual tire place and was told they no longer did on-farm service. I also found out that all the Farmer Coops in my area no longer have their tire trucks.
Finally found someone about 30 miles away. There were about 6-7 tire shops ten years ago in my area 10 years ago that had trucks. Now there are only 2 in a three county area (Northeast Nebraska).
Are others having the same happening their areas with getting on-farm tire service? Is there something happening to the business that is making dealers get out of it?
