If you consider that old, ouch. We have a '44 M, '69 826, '69 856, '71 856 bought new, 79 3588 and 81 3788. The 2+2's are the newest tractors on my entire ridge except for one neighbor with a 95 Case IH 7120. He still uses his M, 1086, 784 and 1066, though. All older tractors on this ridge. I figure as long as those 856s are as tough as they are, what's the use for new? 10% better for 5 times the price? I don't think so. Doesn't logically make sense. My Super M will do about anything I want it to do, and so we use it. Any questions? Didn't think so. Sometimes, in the larger picture, if it gets the job done, do it, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it. HAve fun with farming the way it was meant to be!!
