You are right about me not being a fan of the 70 series;-) I hate to see almost any tractor we bought new leave but was happy to see that one go as stated before. Keep in mind this was only the fourth tractor of seven we bought new to be traded off in 80 plus years. Other machines have come and gone but the one owners are hard to come by!!

I had forgotten about the differences in the hood as mentioned later by others that is nice.

The 90 series muffler placement is nice I guess. I think it was more a result of the desire to have a tilting hood though. Only problem here is if you want to put a loader on. I know Case had a kit to get the muffler up against the cab somewhat like the magnums and deeres etc, don't know if that one is still available.

One thing not mentioned earlier is the PTO. The larger frame tractors only had 1000 RPM available. I know the 1070, 2290 had two speed PTO's and the 1570, 2590 had 1000 RPM only. Don't know about the 1370 and 2390 but I think they had the 1000 only (worth checking depending on use).

As to the power shift. There are some things that can go wrong but there is no good way to tell. Common things are the bolts in the cage of the planetaries have been known to shear. The torque limiter can also go out. But as with anything mechnical the only way to be sure it won't break is to not use it.
