I couldn't agree with Hugh more. It's not like IH didn't have the know how, heck they already had the parts and pieces they needed in some cases, they just sat on their hand instead.
I've been around a few number series JDs and while the 2 cylinders and hand clutches sort of baffled me the rest of the machines were pretty well equipped.
It's funny, when IH finally figured out it needed to play catch up they rolled out the X60s. Now I think some of the problems that came with them might be a bit over blown (I know a few folks that have had them for a very long time and like them) but it sounds like IH rushed them out. Heck they had over 10 years to come up with something great and instead rushed out a line that had issues...
I like IH stuff, don't get me wrong, I just wonder if IH would still be here to day if they were on the ball a bit more.
