I'm in the market for a 80-90hp cab tractor. I looked at a 2-85 in April. Everything worked good on it, seller was going to have a leak in the PS fixed & add a factory style AC unit. I really like the seller (have bought from him before), but the mechanic has taken his time getting it ready. Meanwhile, I found a IH 886 this weeked. About the same shape as the 2-85 except for AC needs freon & the PTO is not currently working. Guy thinks he can have the 2-85 ready by Sat., the other seller is looking to see about getting the 886 to me by Sat. The 886 has been priced at $7000 as is, which is about 1500 cheaper than the 2-85. I have a pic of the 886, don't have one of the 2-85. What do you guys think... Thanks, Matthew
