Farmall 100 vs Farmall HV

Verdict: Farmall 100 vs Farmall HV

The Farmall 100 and the Farmall HV are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Farmall HV leads on rated power with 19 hp against 18 hp. Farmall HV is the lighter machine (2,165 kg vs 2,600 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Farmall 100 is the newer design (1954 vs 1942). In short: choose the Farmall HV for outright pulling power, or the Farmall 100 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
