I agree with your the 3 points you make. However, the 3PH still has a different pitch depending on the height of the implement. Also, the 3PH may direct force to the front of the tractor, but that takes weight away from the drive wheels. I can't argue that the 3PH supports implement weight better, but maybe the Fast Hitch just wasn't designed to carry extremely heavy implements? I am not overwhelmingly familiar with 2 point Fast Hitches, but on my 140 (1 point hitch), I can set the drawbar bail to be leveled by the front hydraulics. This means that I can change the pitch of a plow (or any other implement) for more or less "suck" without getting off the tractor to screw the third arm in or out. The bail can be pinned to the floorboard of the tractor for cultivating very quickly. The 3PH certainly is better than the Fast Hitch for many tasks. However, I argue that the Fast Hitch is better OVERALL.

I personally don't think it can be beat for a utility tractor in the 40 HP range. They are extremely thrifty on fuel, at least my DSL is. Most drive train parts are fairly easy to get. Sheet metal is probably the hardest thing to
