would you use a 2705 as a loader tractor ?

Would a 2705 be a candidate for a loader tractor? Or is it not suited to that work.

Eight speed manual, yes. Twenty four speed powershift, no.

I use a 2805 as a loader tractor. I am probably more nuts than most though. Bought it and put a loader on it when I needed a cheap tractor. Now its paid for and doesn't owe me a dime. The transmission actually works really well as a loader, shuttle gear shift and reverse is faster than forward. 8th reverse will go about30 mph! Hydraulics are slow, but it is possible to hook up the loader so one function uses each pump. Biggest thing I don'tlike is it is a pig on fuel. 6 cyl would be quite a bit better.
