Do the smaller power reverser utility tractors have cruise control?

Just bumpin' this so you can maybe get an answer. I'd like to know, too, since a power reverser would save some money. Without getting into the whole Hydrostatic vs gear issue, I think the power reverser could be the best of all worlds - especially for ground engagement work.

I think what you are calling a power reverser is what I call a shuttle shift if so my l2250 had one and as a gear drive tractor if you set the hand throtle it was the same as having cruise control Randy

Like any gear transmission, one sets the throttle (hand throttle) at a given RPM and the tractor moves along. There is no need to use the foot throttle unless you want to increase speed momentarilly.
So, it's not exactly a "cruise control", but the operator does not have to push on a pedal continuously.

I do have a reverser transmission on my Deere 4400, BTW.
