Verdict: Ford 655D vs Ford 755B
The Ford 655D and the Ford 755B are both backhoe loaders — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford 755B leads on rated power with 105 hp against 82 hp. Ford 655D is the lighter machine (1,488 kg vs 16,920 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
