bit more of my thoughts. I think the size of machines and farms is a big part of what killed the idea. Also they were light in some areas. You could make different series mules and attachments work but needed a adapter kit for most mix matching. We had a 707 I think (non turbo perkins) and a combine that we ran a 4 row wide cornhead on. Mule was way overpowered for the combine so you could overload the combine pretty easy. I did like the bin extender when conditions allowed us to pull a wagon.
Neighbor had the full setup for cattle, (Picker, Sheller, chopper and combine) and he liked it. Told of switching from picking corn in the morning to combining beans in the afternoon on a regular basis.
All in all it was a idea that had merit but there were issues with design and dealer network.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
