Hate to tell you guys this but Cat made a heck of a lot of AG crawlers and they had both the first farm tractor with a diesel and the first turbo AG tractor. Sure enough on steel tracks but sold to and used on the farm for tillage work. IH had the first wheeled diesel and AC the first wheeled turbo tractor.
IMO both AC and IH messed up big time with the Snap Coupler and Fast Hitch systems. Most of them old farmers back then were not going to want a proprietary hitch system that didn't allow them to use already owned implements or the ability to shop around for implements that may have cost less. I think it cost both companies sales to JD, Case, Oliver, MM, Ford and others. So neither are really bragging points and helped lead to the demise of both companies. And no, I'm not a JD fan. I'm kinda color blind on tractors. To me the best tractor is one that starts, runs, completes the work required without breakdowns and most important is paid for!
