Ford 1841 vs Ford 345D

Verdict: Ford 1841 vs Ford 345D

The Ford 1841 and the Ford 345D are both industrial tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 345D leads on rated power with 58 hp against 56 hp. Ford 1841 is the lighter machine (1,723 kg vs 8,520 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
