Allan in NE,
In Indiana, and other high density states, acreage may be divided up into 5-12 acre chunks. With trees, ditches, and sometimes people, getting into the line of sight from the steering hub across the radiator cap and to infinity (gotta aim somehow). Those Uts's turn and cut with the accuracy of a barrel racer. We still use ours (57-350Ute)in preference to a row-crop most of the time. Bush hog, cultivating, plowing gardens, snow plow, baling, backing wagons (not trailers), and a million other tasks including pulling a 70' deep well casing directly out of the ground (there must have been 8-10 ton of lift on the fast hitch drawbar).
The only time they do not "get-er-done" is on the hottest of days plowing for hours, 3/14's in second straight/TA in clay (yellow stuff that could be used for ceramic projects). The fuel tank is so close to the engine and enclosed by the sheetmetal that it can get the fuel too hot.
That is my one finding of weekness.
They are just a handy ball of metal.
Help me here Paul IH350!
