I don't know. I guess the idea of what was the best tractor was alright. But you can't "throw rocks at my lady" and not expect me to defend her. At this point in my life I've owned close to a hundred different tractors. All but a dozen or so were Oliver or White. I have spent less money on that 1750 per hour worked then any other tractor. Still has the original sleeves and pistons in fact. This after 38 years of ownership. To say one model is the "worst of" something is just plain sillyness in my opinion. Why not just stick to the positives? And yes I've owned a pocket full of 16s in all manner of shapes, narrow, wide, 4x4, etc. There are just things I like about the 17s better. More comfortable ride, more positive brake lock, better hyd on 1755, more muscle and weight,etc. In short they are just a "SUPER" 4 plow tractor. Although ours has pulled duty on a 5-16 when a larger tractor went down. Sort of like an F-150 over an F-100, just more truck for the buck. I will further disagree with you about the value of the 16 vs 17 in reguards to diesel models. While there is not a very strong market for 17 and 18 gas burners, that cannot be said for 17 diesels. They will bring as much or more than a comparable 16. It's my job to know this, it's what I do.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
