Ford 655C vs Ford 750

Verdict: Ford 655C vs Ford 750

The Ford 655C and the Ford 750 are both backhoe loaders — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 750 leads on rated power with 96 hp against 82 hp. Ford 750 is the lighter machine (8,164 kg vs 14,200 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Ford 655C is the newer design (1989 vs 1975). In short: choose the Ford 750 for outright pulling power, or the Ford 655C if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
