It would have been best if perhaps five separate manufacturers could have survived past the mid 1980's going into the present. IH had the industry in a choke hold going into WWII but just never had the right CEO to make the post war company work. It was also against IH that they were prominent as McCormick during the 19th Century with the labor difficulties. I don't think there was ever a moment of true peace between IH workers and management. As far as the 460 goes the neighbor years ago had one and they and the subsequent owner could never get it right. The original owners often parked it in favor of the H especially when doing loader work which is sad. There was also a 560 in the community owned by a die hard IH man which got traded on a 4010 during the early 1960's. I don't think Deere was the only competition but perhaps was the stiffest. If a guy did not need a row crop and creature comforts during 1958-59 the Case 900 was a impressive tractor for the day.
