were they needed?yes definitly.how many 4 wd tractors are you seeing nowdays?i wouldnt even consider buying a NEW tractor without front wheel assist anymore to farm with.you have to remember that back when these were being built,a 40-50 horse tractor was considered a pretty big one. to put it in perspective ,this last weekend i plowed @ 7 acres.started at sundown when it was cooling off,and ran (constant)until 3am or so,this would be conservativly 6 hrs constant running with a 8n in 3rd gear 3/4 throttle.i finished the next morning in a couple of hours after refueling.so all in all right at 8 hrs for that food plot in plowing alone.still have to disc,maybe harrow and plant.figure it this way,i was covering you can say 2ft a pass with my two bottom plow he on the other hand was pulling a 20 ft chisel,which makes each pass he makes 10 times more productive at least.he was burning maybe 5 gal fuel an hr as compared to my 1 but he could do everything in right at 45 minutes.i still have another 8 hrs or so.he burnt 3.5 gallons,i will burn right at 16 so he is close to five times as effecient on fuel.so heres the total stats,he is 10 times more effecient with his work,hes over 5 times more fuel effecient,and hes over 8 times as effecient on time!were they needed?pencil it out yourself.
