Ford 655A vs Ford 655D
Verdict: Ford 655A vs Ford 655D
The Ford 655A and the Ford 655D are both backhoe loaders — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 655D leads on rated power with 82 hp against 72 hp. Ford 655D is the lighter machine (1,488 kg vs 14,830 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Ford 655D is the newer design (1993 vs 1985). In short: choose the Ford 655D for outright pulling power, or the Ford 655A if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
