Yeah, a tractor is largely just an engine + weight(traction). What attachments(front and back, PTO) are what make them useful. Their popularity is largely driven by the large variety of things you can do with them. Our CUT(Compact Utility Tractor) does very little 'farming' at the moment. However all the other things it does(dirt work, leveling, moving 500lb hay bales, mowing/pasture upkeep) are why we have it around. When you look at the 3-point hitch, power take-off and SSQA just about anything you can do with dedicated equipment you can do with a CUT. The dedicated equipment may be faster but you only have to upkeep a single machine with a tractor.
