With the Case-IH quadratracs being so popular around here it makes me wonder why John Deere has not copied the idea yet??? I hear they ride very nice compared to tires. Whats the deal??? Ryan

The Case IH quadratrac design always made a lot more sense to me than the Cat/John Deere approach. It must also be a lot cheaper to produce because the track and wheel version tractors have the same design. The 9xxx Deere track tractor is completly different than the wheel tractor of the same size.
