Ford 4000 LCG vs Ford 545C

Verdict: Ford 4000 LCG vs Ford 545C

The Ford 4000 LCG and the Ford 545C are both industrial tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 545C leads on rated power with 67 hp against 63 hp. Ford 4000 LCG is the lighter machine (2,663 kg vs 8,610 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
