OK, I see it now. No "Terratrac" in the title so I missed it. I don't see any thing in ANY of the posts that express "hatred" for TerraTracs. The only somewhat negative post is by Pops1532. His opinion is greatly outweighed by many other relevant posts.
I've fixed up countless crawlers bought in that condition or worse. Deere 1010s and 350s, Terratracs, Oliver HGs, OC3s, and OC4s, Allis Chalmers HD3s and HD4s, etc. And yeah - if I calculated the worth of the effort by charging a high rate for my own time - it's rarely worth it. That might make Pops1532 on target. But how many fix up old tractors just on the dollar-return basis? For many - there is the "fun" factor and maybe a bit of pride in bringing a piece of US heritage back to life.
The guy paid $1500 for a running machine. Parts are not very hard to find. In fact I just bought a brand new set of rollers for a Terratrac for $60 each (made in Korea). Terratrac uses the same Clark transaxle as many other crawlers. For someone with skill, time and parts-scrounging abilities - $1500 purchase price plus another $1500 in pars will result in a very useful small crawler. Only slight problem is the fast gearing in low range.

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
