I have been reading this and getting a kick out of it. I have john deere, cih and ih tractors today. we farmed at one time 13 hundred acers crops in the 70's thru the late 80's with a jd 4020, 4440- ih 1256 ,856,& a 1066. now I can be nuteral in this and tell you like it is. The 1066 did most of the heavy work. we pulled back then 5-16's plow with the 1066 & the 4440 along with a 20ft disc & harrow.the 1066 had a little more ump than the 4440. not much difference between the 856 & 4020. could get a little more traction with the 856 may just a little more horse on the bottom end. as far as shifting, well the 4440 was power shift.the 1256 & 1066 shifted the same. my 1256 never had a ta and the 1066 never had any trouble. we used the 1066 more than the 4440 because we could not keep the rear end together in it . as far as parts, everything is high today but jd are higher. anybody tells you different they are full of it. my jd 9650 combine cost a whole more than my 2388 cih on price of parts.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
