I actually work for an asphalt company and can attest to the way tractors and loaders are used on the job. We normally use full sized JD backhoes or skid steers, but some companies do use smaller CUTs with a box blade. A loader bucket without a replaceable cutting edge has no chance of lasting on an asphalt job. Lots of cutting, pushing, and back dragging on existing asphalt is **** on a bucket. Tractors and loaders are a must for loading and unloading trailers, hopper for the paver, which explains something being dropped across the hood. Probably a tough little tractor, but it would never keep up with our operation. Probably used for a smaller parking lot/driveway operation, which is still a tough job for a small CUT. If so, this poor guy has seen a good bit of loader work.
