Farmall Cub vs Farmall F-14

Verdict: Farmall Cub vs Farmall F-14

The Farmall Cub and the Farmall F-14 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Farmall F-14 leads on rated power with 12 hp against 11 hp. Farmall F-14 is the lighter machine (1,224 kg vs 1,477 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
