So you don't think the 70 was the best tractor?? And if the farmer in question liked the 70 the best wouldn't he think it was the best tractor out of all of them. I don't think there was anything fishy. The F-20 was rated for 2 bottoms just like the 70. If the 70 has 2 1/2 hp more then the F-20 that's just too bad for the Farmall. What was the farmer suppose to do? Make the Oliver guy pull a plug wire to even it up some. Maybe the IH guy should have brought a F-30 so it would be "fair". Besides I don't care which tractor you would have rooted for, the 70 with its styling, its one piece transmission/finals with bar axles, and 6 cylinder high compression engine made the F-20 look obsolete. Heck it made all of them look old and outdated. I'm not blaming the farmer for buying the 70. Just questioning a 70 being able to pull a 3 bottom plow.
Also, don't knock the magazine until you have read it. Lots of good info and articles from fellow collectors of tractors you've never heard of. The part about the 8n and Farmall M wasn't written by APM. It came from the Letters to the Editor section so it was written by another collector just like you. Be no different if you wrote in claiming the 8n was a better tractor then the M and people taking issue with that.
