SC WI | lol, well they did move production from Racine, to the UK and made some changes along the way so I doubt it had to do with parts, they had that gap between selling the remaining 94s and tooling up for the Magnums that they could've used up any excess parts. The Maxxums 51x0's came out in 1990 after production of the 96s ceased, so they were filling the need for a smaller tractor than the Magnum that would fill the 100-130 horse gap while still getting good fuel economy. The Maxxums were to light to ever truly replace the 2096 but that size tractor was pretty much not needed by the time the early 90's rolled around.
I do think the 8000 series Allis tractors had a nice cab but the 90 and better refined later with the 94 series Case tractors really had the best cab's of the era in my mind and control layouts that along with the tilt hood really paved the way to the operator friendly tractors that came after, It's to bad the Magnums didn't get a 94 series cab they would have been that much better of a tractor than they were. | |
