I am with Dan and Hugh on the 66 series opinions. I had a brand new 76 model 1566. Dad's 1256 would walk circles around that tractor. The cab on the 15 was not much quiter than the aftermarket Excel cab we had on the 1256. Deere, on the other hand, was in the fourth year of the sound gard bodies and walking away. The 86 series was kind of a worked over 66 with a quiet cab. Shifting sucks on the 86's, we now have two of them. As was stated before, a 1456 follow up tractor with power shift and a quiet cab would have been a wiser tractor to build. The 66's were not a step forward, they were a step sideways and maybe back a little bit.
