Quantity does have its own quality though.
Even with the Challengers, M1's and Leopards the North German plain would have been a very interesting punch up.
If you consider that in every exercise I took part in in the 80's Royal Air Force in Germany, we went "Chemical" straight away and "Nuclear" after 3 days.
IF the Russians had come over the border in either August (summer holidays) or at Xmas time, with everyone at skeleton manning. And without the time to reinforce I think the Red army would have made it to the Rhine, in the perfect Tank country of North Germany.
Once their supply lines got that extended it would have stopped them, but it would certainly have been close.
