I would go with the 4020. I have three here right now. The 966 does not handle as nice and is much harder to get on and off of. My wife's family had a 1066 and she could not believe how much better a 4020 was to operate. You will have plenty of power for your 9 ft discbine. We cut everything from heavy rye for silage to alfalfa and grass and always cut in 5th gear sometimes 6th. I do not like the TA in the IH as they will free wheel when not in direct and will need repair sometime. For heavy tillage the IH is great and the twin pto shafts was a very good idea on the IH. Take the steering wheel off a 4020 and you can still steer it that will not work on the IH.I would prefer an 856 to a 966 and would never consider an 86 series. The IH does have a better engine but I have no complaits with the Deere 404. Lots of people made a good living with either one of them. Tom

Today's Featured Article - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
