I ran one for several years digging various jobs but mainly joint utility trench for PG and E, the utility company in the Santa Clara (Silicon) Valley, California, back in the 1970's. Those old 580's were pretty good units, sure, certain things wear out, but there were no really weak,points.....the 188 Diesel engines were real good and quite powerful. Only thing I ever thought about them was the tractor unit itself was a little small,or light to carry the heavy backhoe/loader equipment.......later versions, B's, C's etc., had bigger tractor components.

But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
