The skill of the tractor driver affects the patency. The T-40 has a huge plus - its weight, I had to deal with that.

All are good. On the MTZ-82, it was necessary to remove the belt, and the T-40AM tractor driver did not turn on the gas, but turn on the 2nd gear and lock

The one who was on the t - 40 initially began to gas in the mud, this is his mistake, he had to drive slowly and smoothly in a lower gear

Tractor patency depends on the gasket between the steering wheel and the seat. On the T40, the carrier got pissed off from the tilt of the tractor and moved away from the shock only on the bank of the puddle

Even the MTZ-82 passed, because it was driving calmly, at low speeds and in low gear ... Despite the fact that its nose was buried deeper than its rivals.

I worked on almost all tractors in the USSR and I declare with full responsibility that the T-40 AM is the most reliable machine. Yes, amenities are minimal.
Well, in the video, the dude is as much a tractor driver as I am a ballerina!

Here is a competent operation of technology! Dirt is both grease and anticorrosive and rubber does not eat in such puddles, not like on asphalt.
An experienced eye immediately sees professionals in them, they quickly did the work in the field and there is time for such preventive maintenance of equipment.
The boys have been awarded!
If you agree put your thumbs up.
