Anyone want to weigh in on what is the hardest thing on a tractor? I was thinking about this as I was moving snow today. I won't blade snow with my loader tractor or a field tractor unless I absolutely have to. I have a tractor that blades all of the snow but only runs about 5 hours a year otherwise. Blading is hard on a machine I think. Backing into piles, the torque of an angled blade on the three point, etc.
A field tractor has a fairly constant pull on it from the drawbar when cultivating. While it may be a tough pull I don't think it is especially hard on a machine unless you are trying to run too fast or with something too large.
Some folks are really hard on loader tractors, but I use mine for chores and it doesn't see any real dirt or rock work - something a skid steer is designed for.
I know some folks are hard on a machine no matter what is hooked to it. Those aren't the ones I am talking about. I'm thinking of an implement that you hook onto for its designed purpose.
