First off, I worked on a farm with 4 1066s, each one no more than 150 hp. These tractors are not junk as evidenced by the fact that they are still in use 30 years after manufacture. I also strongly disagree with Hugh MacKay, it sounds to me like he's had a few bad experiences with these tractors and blames the lot of 'em.

Don't be harping these tractors, EVERY tractor has it's faults, whether it's cavitation erosion or a powershift with bugs left in it yet (early 4020s). I was simply taken aback by Mr. MacKay's strong words, I mean no disrespect to him, but I had to reply.
