Ford 4600 vs Ford 941
Verdict: Ford 4600 vs Ford 941
The Ford 4600 and the Ford 941 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 941 leads on rated power with 63 hp against 60 hp. Ford 941 is the lighter machine (1,496 kg vs 4,480 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
