My experience with the HST at work have been bushhogging/bale bucking/seeding construction sites. I really like them to the point I'm doing alot of research on one for next season. One thing is they really need to push the PTO hp to around 60hp range so it fills that utility tractor range I remeber from the farm and require for alot implements I plan on running. Anyways nice discussion alot of good point here.
