To me the 686 is just a warmed over 656. The hyds on the Deere will be much better and you would be getting a hyd clutch. Bad about a 4030 is they are one of the worst for getting antifreeze in the oil due to electrolysis. same engine used in 2840 and 4400-6600 combines. The IH would have to be super nice for me to choose it over the 4030. The 4030 is also going to ride better. Did the 686's ever get a park? Neighbors 656 just has locking brake pedals and he about got run over when it wasn't latched right. IH just never seemed to put the effort into their smaller tractors. There is a huge difference between the 656 and the 756-856 same with 786 and 986 compared to the 686. I know they needed to compete on price but it seems they could have done better. I will admit to being very bias in favor of green tractors as I only have about 10 of them.LOL Tom
