A recent book on the letter-series Farmalls states that IHC intended the Farmall H to replace the F-12. I have original sales lit that calls the H a "full two-plow tractor," i.e., that will pull two 14" plows.
From a lot of experience with two Hs, I can tell you that their power was marginal for that load, unlike the F-20, which had a lot bigger engine and which, on rubber, pulled two 14s with ease(the large engine provided enough power to make up for the waste inherent in steel wheels; when such a tractor was converted to rubber, it became a tiger). There is no doubt that the H is more like an F-12 than it is like an F-20--it has a fairly small engine that runs relatively fast, and it is agile and easy to drive compared to an F-20 (which was often quite uncomfortable and sometimes a handful to steer--have spent a lot of time on a couple of 'em). Any comments on the intentions of IHC for the H?
