I've been around several over the years, since they were introduced.

There are two that I know of still operating in my area.

As JD says, they are great for loader or snowblower use. Trouble is, the 3-point and PTO are/can be on the same end, so you have to remove the loader to use the three-point. I can't remember if the option was available to have them at opposite ends, or if that came with later models. Something to look at/consider, anyhow.

I am tall and have BIG feet and entering the cab and getting around the reversible seat is a miserable experience for me.

Probably the BIGGEST downside is parts availability. In the first place, they are getting OLD, and then they were really treated as the unwanted $^@*&%^@ child though the Ford/New Holland/FIAT/Rostselmash buyouts/mergers.

A half-dozen years ago, already, when my son worked at a Versatile dealership, many drivetrain parts were NLA and they had to get them from salvage yards or other aftermarket sources.
