Steven: I would like to see the proof of that proven fact. On my farm every gallon of diesel that went into each tractor was recorded. On just over 10,000 hours 656 average 1.1 gph; 560 same engine but cranking a 100 hp, 11,000 hours, 1.75 gph; 1066 each time on dyno aprox. 160 hp, 9,500 hours, 4.65 gph. After the first year, every time that 1066 was started it was for 15 ton manure spreader, 20 ft. disk, 20 ft. cultivator and New Holland 890 Forage Harvester and NEVER for anything else. Look at the big three diesel pickups, since they added turbos. Great if you want to haul 100hp tractor on fifth wheel at 60 mph, and most of em don't have the brakes for that. What about the 90% of time you want to haul a diesel nurse tank, few tools and spare parts. Non of them will match the old 6.2 Chevy or 6.9 IH naturally aspired. I could go into highway tractors, would take too long, but I have had experience all the way to 140,000 lbs. gross. My opinion STILL HOGWASH on your statment. Hugh

We arrived hoping to meet up with a man we knew had over one
