Also with a WF it is easier to watch for holes and obstacles that the front wheels might hit. We had a B JD and 2 WF WD45 ACs when I was a kid. The B was the only tractor that had been tipped over. The B was downright scary to drive compared to the WD45. The B was good for cultivating and mowing, tho.
