Ferguson F-40 vs Ferguson TO-35

Verdict: Ferguson F-40 vs Ferguson TO-35

The Ferguson F-40 and the Ferguson TO-35 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ferguson TO-35 leads on rated power with 33 hp against 31 hp. Ferguson TO-35 is the lighter machine (1,451 kg vs 1,550 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Ferguson F-40 is the newer design (1956 vs 1954). In short: choose the Ferguson TO-35 for outright pulling power, or the Ferguson F-40 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
