MECHANICAL
The David Brown 2D tractor features a 4x2 2WD chassis that offers moderate traction, making it suitable for lighter agricultural tasks on level terrain. The manual steering can pose challenges in maneuverability, particularly in tight spaces, while the mechanical internal expanding brakes may require more maintenance compared to hydraulic systems. Its open operator station design provides good visibility but lacks weather protection, which can be a disadvantage in adverse conditions.

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The David Brown 2D tractor features a compact wheelbase of 72 inches, enhancing its maneuverability in tight spaces, making it suitable for smaller agricultural tasks or orchard work. Weighing 1900 lbs, it provides a balance of stability and ease of transport; however, it may struggle with heavier towing tasks compared to larger models. The combination of 4.00x15 front tires and 6.00x22 rear tires may offer good traction on varied terrain, but their sizes can limit flotation on softer ground, necessitating caution in wet conditions.
