In Reply to: JD 4020 vs IH 966 posted by Bill VA on July 10, 2018 at 15:11:08:
Both are good top notch tractors. The '9' is newer('71 to '75),the 4020 (64 to '71).The '9' has more power,and better fuel economy.The '9' has 16 foreward gears;the 4020,8.the JD has better hydraulics,is lighter in weight,and is more nimble.The IH hydraulic pumps are much cheaper(and easier) to change if that even becomes necessary. Some folks say the 4020 easier to operate,I say they are bout even once you get used to them.The early 4020 with the hydraulic controls on the dash is unhandy(IMHO).The IH has both 1000 and 540 shafts. The 4020 must have the shaft changed each time you want/need to change pto speeds.The IH is taller than the JD.You would be happy with either tractor. If I remember correctly,you already have a 756?The 966 is the better choice then, simply because you are already used to IH. Plus,staying with one brand means everything 'fits'.Weights,filters,hitch dimentions,........Staying with one brand just makes better sence.

Except for last fourth of July's Old Gold show in Springfield, Illinois, I don't remember when it was so hot. Nevertheless, the heat didn't keep vendors and visitors alike from enjoying the third annual Country Day's Event. Jane Elliott said the event was originally a one man show. "Barry Seiler, owner of Country Town Farm Supply store used to invite people up to the Johne Deere store. He would give hats and a free meal for everyone that brings a tractor." Elliott said while this
