It had a more powerful engine, improved narrow front wheels and a four-cylinder overhead valve engine with 29 horsepower (22 kW), feeding a four-gear sliding-gear transmission. The F-20 name implied that the machine could pull two plows. [1]
Differential braking for rear wheels would allow tight, controlled turns. An experimental model was developed in 1920. By 1923, prototypes of the rear-wheel-drive tractor with narrow front wheels were working crops. Production began in 1924, with tractors selling for $825. Tractors were marketed with a range of attachments for various duties.
