I was talking to a fellow about how much things cost today and he recounted a story about somebody considering a tractor purchase back in 1976. It seems this person was in the market for a tractor and was talking to the local IH salesman. The 66 series was phased out by the 86 series at that point. Anyhow, his dealer has a new 766 open station that the dealer is willing to make a good price on. The farmer really does not have an exact requirement for power on this purchase but is open to 60-90 HP. The farmer prices a 686 as that is within the range he is looking at. The dealer at this point shaves a little more off of the 766 as the demand is fairly low versus the higher HP models in the 66 series line. The final take it or leave it deal has the 766 only barely 650 dollars above the 686. The farmer opts for the 686 based on the 650 dollar savings. Not a right or wrong answer in this but how many here would go with strictly the price and how many would opt for the extra power for 650 dollars more? To me it would be hard to pass up the extra power for less than a thousand dollars more.
