gusc: You make a very good point, and backs up what I've been saying for years. I am 62 and farmed for a living. I have in my years, yet to see what I consider the perfect tractor. I did most of my farming with Farmalls, primarily because of dealer support. I did always look at what the competition had to offer. I am refering mainly to companies producing tractors through 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. Amoung companies such as IH, JD, AC, MF, Ford, Oliver, Cockshutt, Case, I have never seen a tractor that didn't have at least one feature that I liked.

The interesting part of all of this as of 2004, I think John Deere has done the best job of marketing everyone else's good ideas. John Deere still does not have the perfect tractor in my opinion. Mainly because they overlooked some good ideas. They should go back to IH 56 series and their own 20 series and see what they missed.

So for all these guys that think they have the perfect tractor, you have a bit to learn.
