the all new 88 Series International Harvester 2+2 Tractors from IH

you Oh well Tom how are you you've been quite a stranger around here lately how's the family oh they're just fine just fine how about you're just great thanks say you know it's been a long time since I've been by here how long you had no not too long just long enough oh yeah long enough to know it's a tractor I've been waiting for for years never seen anything like it not even close that good huh good attracted with full time power on all fours and it's just the right size to fit my farm and a real roll cropper - you don't say that's got on the gold power shifting torque amplifier transmission a power shift independent PTO and a three-point hitch with torsion bar load sensing you name it this 2+2 has got it the 2+2 huh say I've been hearing quite a bit about this but I don't quite get the drift what is it that you get all the advantages of a two-wheel drive all the row crop versatility and such plus the advantage is a two more full time drive wheels up front giving you all the efficiencies of a four wheeler in traction and flotation welding why I just call it a four wheel and be done with it and let me show you it doesn't have the typical limitations of a four wheeler especially when it comes to role cropping plus all the other kinds of general work that you normally do the two wheeler ah come on now Doug you make two plus two sound like more than four not get carried away I noticed be that as it may this plus two gives you a lot more traction a lot more stability especially on uneven ground a lot more flotation and a lot less compaction plus handling on the rows that you wouldn't believe is that so the rear wheels always track right where the front ones go straight as our rifle barrel down the rows never yaws one iota around the curves to the rear tires always following the tracks of the front ones now that's hard to believe you know where you are on the rose all the time uh-huh but the main thing that sets is two plus two apart its main advantage over a typical four wheeler for a roll crop work is that the control center is back here on the rear half I can see that so so where's your control center on a typical articulated four wheeler well it's pretty well up for a Julie you're riding on the front half I'll put the engine in the front axle true when your row cropping that's a tremendous drawback right right sure you lose your feel for what's going on back there where the works being done Hey starting to make sense you don't have nearly the row crop control you have on the two wheeler a good point but on this one you do because well because you're controlling everything from the rear back for the hitching implement on exactly just like on our two wheeler beautiful I tell you there's never been anything even remotely like this tractor I love it hey I kind of got that idea well you got a drive it to believe it hey how about letting me take her around a couple of times huh I'll hop right up but there is one condition oh yeah what's that that you don't blame me if you end up buying one all once you drive this tractor you're gonna be unhappy with anything else you're gonna be unhappy every time you get up on that one you've got you think so I know so and you're gonna blame me for being the one to spoil it for you well maybe but I'd like to try it anyway okay okay you've been warned good advice when you try one you best be prepared to buy one you hit the field with one of these new eighty-eights and you know for the first time the unbelievable experience of having full-time - bus - traction the full power stability and flotation combined with true row-crop versatility and control with either 130 or a hundred and fifty PTO horsepower these two plus twos are designed especially for row cropping with rear mounted implements as the man said a moment ago the control center is rear positioned where it needs to be to give you the proper feel and precise control of the implement that a two-wheeler gives you the kind of feeling control that you can't get with a typical four-wheeler you're in full command of the operation a critical advantage when you're doing exacting work like planting cultivating bedding and such the engine's located ahead of the front axle this means you have adequate built in weight for stability with rear mounted implements and there's no need for front-end weights wheel weights or calcium in the tires for most heavy weight Tilly's jobs you get optimal flotation and traction with minimal compaction wheel slippage and fuel consumption optimal conversion of horsepower into work power you get more work done per gallon of fuel the optional night lighting system features highly functional light placement has been researched and developed especially for row-crop work powerful forward lighting is placed down close to the roads where you need it mostly at the articulation point you get a light on either side for optimal visibility during turns and you get an abundance of lighting back where the works being done adjustable halogen lights on the rear fenders can be aimed wherever you want a bright clear view to the rear sides or front and all jobs tractor that's just the right size for handling the major workload on the average-sized farm another big advantage and you can step up from two-wheel drive to 2+2 performance without having to buy bigger implements to enjoy its benefits you can still use your existing tools efficiently and effectively this is full-time 2+2 drive not an add-on not a front wheel power assist people drive power
