The 88 series was built from late '81-'85 so they competed against both the 40 and 50 series Deeres. The reason I was comparing them to the 40 series is because they are closer in price than the 86 series so if you were buying a used tractor they would be more comparable. I find it interesting that you say IH didn't inovate anything, what about the hydro transmissions, IH was the first company to make them work and nobody else offered them in full size tractors. Deere didn't invent the powershift transmisson either, I think Ford gets the credit for that. I find it interesting that you bring up the Caster Action MFD, most of the good points you bring up on the 50-50 series Deeres were good enough that Deere dropped them with the 7000-8000 series tractors meanwhile even though the name on the side of the tractor may be different there is still a big portion of the 88 series tractors in production today.
