I never heard any complaints. It was just one of those things that you get used to just like going from a two wheel drive front steering axle tractor to a center pivot articulated tractor to a Case crab steer 4 wheel drive. Some guys can go from one to the next to the next one yet on the same farm on the same day with no problem then there are guys who can only manage one type of tractor period. I think that if you have enough mud any one of them will be frustrating to keep on the row. Case dealers touted the advantage that with the crab steer you could keep both axles steering uphill to stay on the row. The only thing was that the HP started at 180 with the 2470 by the time I was old enough to care. Case had nothing more economical down around 130-150 HP. White had its 4-150 but White really did not have any powerhouse dealers around like Case or AC did. Back to the 2 plus 2 we plowed when our turn came for a demo as it was summer with a field that needed to be turned to go to wheat that fall. I did see a new 2 plus 2 on a new IH chopper the following fall and it did not look difficult to manage. That fall was a little dryer than the fall of 1978. If you are asking me 2-155 or 3588 I guess if I were calling the shots back then it would have been 2-155 w/ MFWD.
