I just came in from baling with the 886 IH. Yesterday was miserable. I think it hit 100 - the heat index was 113. I ran the 886 10 hours with the A/C on high. It never missed a beat but did run a little warmer than usual. It actually got into the green "run" area. Those tractors always run cool. At the end of the day I shut it down and happened to walk around the front. The grill was covered with brome. I was impressed it didn't get warmer.

Last year was my breaking point. The only tractor that didn't have duals for square baling was the 4020. I just don't tolerate that heat anymore. I decided then that I would have a new tractor with a cab for chores and square baling/raking that wasn't a dualed up field tractor. Enter the 886. Best thing I have done. With it and the other two cab tractors I don't have to worry about weather.
