It is only better if you use it. Many people such as myself can do a
job in one gear and wouldn't use the hydromatic lever other than to
start and stop. It would be a big waste of money and maintenance time.
I would think that a person that thought they were frugal would not
advise people to buy something they aren't going to use.

Tractors with front-end loaders and back-hoes are better also, but I
don't need one. Tractors with 6 cylinder engines are better, but I
don't need one. Tractors with hydromatic transmissions are better, but
I don't need one.
