I'm not sure I'd put much weight on the 'parts availability' or 'age' opinions from my local dealer. I often get the sense they'd rather sell me a new one. And who can blame them.
Figure it out yourself. Go to Messiscks and search on some parts you're concerned about.
The B7510 I just bought did need a few hoses and some fiddly parts for the loader valve. All in stock. No big deal. If changing a few hoses makes you queasy, you need something shiny and new. Or if you have a lot of 'fear' about buying used, just move on. It's a risk that some people don't deal with well. Nothing we say will sway you.
If I'd have seen a 400 hour B7510 with FEL, it'd have been in my driveway within 24 hours, assuming it wasn't stupidly priced.
