The first true tricycle "production" was the Farmall Regular I believe. And I think it was of the double wheel tricycle. One advantage is weight compaction instead of the total front tractor weight on one tire. And yes, I remember the mud sticking between the tires. I would guess the single wheel was brought out as an after thought configuration to the demand of those farmers growing crops in narrow rows, 28 inch or less. One advantage to the two wheel tricycle, One flat tire won't put the front rim on the ground!
