A big factor was Deere's design superiority beginning with the 3010/4010 series in 1959. At that point, Deere leapfrogged IH. When Deere came out with the 3020/4020 with Powershift in 1963, they really left IH in the dust. From that point on, IH tractors got worse while Deere got better. I had the misfortune of running 464, 656, 856, 966, and 1466 in the 1970's along with a 4020 and a 4620. The Deere tractors were much better designed and much easier to drive. The old H and M Farmalls were great tractors, but IH lost it in the 1950's.
