    I remember those tractors well sitting on our local dealers lot I was just a young boy at the time, had hoped dad and grandpa would buy one but with the farm crisis in the 80’s we farm survived by not purchasing, but still another great classic IH 👍👍👍👍👍

    Big Tractor, see if can find one of the last prototype 5488’s with the power shift transmission that was in the early magnums. Saw one in central Illinois in the early 2000’s.

    My dad had a 5088 that we used for over 20 years until it caught fire while my dad was picking cob corn several years ago and burned up. Fortunately, my dad was able to get out of the cab unharmed before it consumed the cab. The fire extinguisher wasn’t enough to stop the fire. That was the first tractor we ever had catch fire and burn up completely.

    Here in Europe the International 1455 is known as one of the best tractors of all time. It was a tractor built in Cologne only for the european market, so I think many Americans don't even know it existed. But so most europeans don't know about the american international models :D And actually there are a lot other internatonal models still running in europe, but all of them were built only for this market and not sold in the US

    It is interesting to see the boxcar Magnums and how there is so much of the 88 series design that lived beyond the IH nameplate. The 3 point hitch for example looks to be the exact same parts.

    • @snowman5609
      @snowman5609 3 года назад +2

      The magnums was the next iH design that was supposed to like out but then they sold out so it came out as a caseih tractor in 1987-1988 tenner who already owned case tried painting there case tractors red and and selling them as a international to try and reduce there invatory but the international fames weren't buying them I remember them saying that they wern't a case painted red alot of iH dealers stuggled with sells until the new magnums witch was a iH design came out in the late 80s.

    I’ve never seen an IH 5488 tractor so this is cool to see. I saw the video that you had earlier this week about the IH 3588 and you was saying something in the comments about a Wheatland version. I didn’t know there was one of those made. I always was fascinated by the 2+2 International Harvester tractors and also the Steiger made 4wds and the 4300s made in the 1960s. The Magnums are a good one that I like of IH and CaseIH.

    International Harvester's main cause of its demise was the hiring of the company president Archie McCardell from Xerox. Record profits in 1979 turned into hundreds of millions in loses in two years and a 172 day UAW strike. McCardell, the 172 day strike, and a recession proved to be end of IH.

    • @bigtractorpower
      @bigtractorpower  3 года назад +1

      He was the first CEO in the United States to be paid $1 million a year. Today that is not much but it was a big deal back then. Interest rates, low grain prices and bad management decisions excelerated the end of IH. Decades of decisions less the company to the point of no return.

    • @Lauterbach24
      @Lauterbach24 3 года назад

      @@bigtractorpower I agree bad decisions and the economy at that moment cost the company, but from everything I have read from the mid level managers, union reps, and front line employees, McCardell was just an awful CEO. He took IH from the 2nd most valuable company in the United States to a company that couldn't even muster $2 on the stock exchange in less than 5 years. 6,400 employees lost their jobs, and IH company was lost forever to Case. He was fired the day after the strike ended, and no concessions on mandatory overtime were accepted by the union. Just a stupid move on his part to force a strike in those economic conditions.
