I wouldn't be fool enough argue with someone that doesn't like his/her tractor. But, "underpowered" is a very relative statement.
My 3414 has all the power it needs for a machine it's size, and it has an industrial loader and backhoe on it.
Comparing the weight means very little. A farm tractor has a PTO that is expected to be used. On an industrial machine, there either is no PTO, or it's a non-issue for regular dirt moving.
My huge Pettibone backhoe loader weighs 17,000 pounds and has a 159 c. i. diesel engine and has all the power it needs. It's real workhorse.
My Deere 1010 crawler-loader weighs 10,000 lbs. and has a 115 c.i. gas engine and also does fine.
Also, why does your 3514 have a 144 engine? I thought it came with the C153 engine, not the British BC144/BD154 like the 3414 uses?
