I can say this...I've got 7 year old 5400s and 6 year old 7400s with over 10,000 traction miles logged and I've not lost a motor yet. The electronics are good but back that up with the quality of Raymond's service manuals I used to say my 15 year old son (who has a very basic understanding of electronics) could fix most problems.

Ain't nothing I can't fix but a broken heart and the break of day!
