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 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.
