Ford 1320 vs Ford 8N
Verdict: Ford 1320 vs Ford 8N
The Ford 1320 and the Ford 8N are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 1320 leads on rated power with 20 hp against 18 hp. Ford 1320 is the lighter machine (2,101 kg vs 2,410 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Ford 1320 is the newer design (1987 vs 1947). In short: choose the Ford 1320 for outright pulling power, or the Ford 8N if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
