Mississippi Delta
Had a 3588 and 3788 back in the 1980s and into the 90s. I always really liked them. They were great grain buggy tractors for rice back before most rice fields around here (MS Delta) were precision leveled. Jumped levees and handled mud very well, all with singles. We also used them for tillage and even on 20 foot Great Plains three point drills and 30 foot GP "pull type" drills.

I don't remember any serious issues, though it's been a while and I was quite young when we had them. All in all, very good, and in my opinion, underappreciated tractors. The best part is, you can find decent used ones for $12-20K if you put in a little time.
