A really helpful tool these tractors are!

[Dave Canfield]

Cleaning up my folks place. Used a Wicked 60 to load: a tank, complete small block Chevy with a Landcruiser transmission and transfer case attached, Landcruiser front axle, bulldozer blade, and culvert into the scrap metal folks truck. Since we didn't have to cut stuff up, the tractor and grapple saved a lot of time.
Next was smoothing out the driveway with the landscape rake.
Later in the day I used the pallet forks to haul materials for a deck and stairs project.
All in all, I am very pleased with the performance of the tractor.

These are considered a hybrid of R1/R4 thus R14. As I understand, the carcass is more like R4 so good for loader work. I had previously only owned R1 so I cannot compare to R4, but I do like them so far for what I do, mostly mowing and some grapple work.

I also like the R14 tread so far. Although I worry that they will wear faster than other tread patterns.
