We had a 1468 on our farm back in the 70's and it sadly was the last farmall my grandfather bought. He bought a JD 4630, and on the same day, same field, same plow, the 4630 would plow a gear higher, and one MPH faster. The difference is in the engine design.

The cummins gains torque so much easier/quicker than the V-8's it isn't even funny...
