We've been having a long discussion of this on the Farmall mailing list on ATIS, including a couple of employees of IH. The upshot is that there are manu reasons, dating back in some cases all the way to the 1902 formation. And actually, IH was neither forced out of business or sold- the Ag equipment division was sold to Case/Tenneco, Construction to Dresser (now Komatsu) while the old IH, now just trucks, changed its name to Navistar, which is actually quite healthy today.
