I really don't think so as far as popularity goes. No idea if some were shipped overseas or not be in the US and Canada about 11,500 were built over 5 or 6 years. When you consider that the 1086 had about the same number of years for a production run and they built about 42,500? And that was just one model of the 86 series tractor? The 11,500 is all models of the 2+2. LOL heck the 86 series tractors totaled close to 115,000 units.
Several things hurt IH with the 2X2. One MFWA was cheaper and was just starting to get popular. Another was timing. Just the wrong time to enter the market.
As far as popular in an area? Don't really know. When they started production I was stationed at Ft Riley KS. I drove to West MN often. States traveled in we KS, NE, IA, SD and MN. Never saw one in the field during those trips. Only place I saw em was o the dealers lots (yea I was on dealers lots, drove a Scout back then). Then I was assigned to Ft Bliss TX. So add TX (not just west TX) and OK to my travels. Later I was assigned to Ft Knox KY. States traveled were IN, IL, IA, WI and MN depending on the route traveled. Never saw any on those trips. In fact didn't start seeing them in fields till about 20 years ago, long after IH failed.
