This Case IH Magnum tractor was unveiled during the 2008 Farm Progress Show in Boone, Iowa.
At the time, John Koetz, senior director of marketing for Case IH, said the tractor's American-themed paint job reflected 165 years of continuous equipment production in Racine, Wis., the 200th anniversary of Cyrus McCormick, who introduced mechanization into grain harvest, and the company's decision to extend the Case IH Magnum Series tractors with mid-range models.
