Yeah, I don't know that I ever do use the pedal.
On some of my older Narrow Frame tractors the pedals are EXTREMELY difficult to push down if the lever is in the forward position, and they are a PITA to fix, so I don't mess with them unless I have the dash apart for some reason.
I don't know if that's the reason for not using the pedal or not, but in any event, my hand is always on the lever anyway. I would bet that 9 out of 10 times, if I'm going to stop (for whatever reason), the next step is reverse anyway. There is no reason to step on the pedal then let off, then pull the lever backward.'' It's all one motion with little or no pause in the middle.
I guess some could say that I'm hard on my hydro transmissions and I may be... But, I have yet to break one. I have yet to replace brake pads either...
