Oldman, a JD 6430 Premium(w/IVT) and a basically like new 673 SL loader.

(complete with fancy electronic rear SCV's that don't work right when it gets 'cold')
(I was bitching about it last winter.....)
I had a 6430. It was a good tractor. Traded for a 6125R and it's a lemon. Fortunately our local dealers service department has went above and beyond to try and resolve the problems. It was in the shop again last week. If it would have been the first John Deere tractor I bought it would have been the last
Fellow I know quit buying CaseIH tractors quite recently. Like within the last 10 years.
He got started with a 1066 IH, then got into the 88 series.
Bought a CaseIH new in 2009 or so.
They painted the whole tractor before they attached any wiring. None of the grounds were paint free.
Intermittent electrical nightmare.
