Ford 9000 vs Ford FW-25

Verdict: Ford 9000 vs Ford FW-25

The Ford 9000 and the Ford FW-25 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford FW-25 leads on rated power with 135 hp against 131 hp. Ford FW-25 is the lighter machine (9,200 kg vs 9,800 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. Ford FW-25 is the newer design (1986 vs 1970). In short: choose the Ford FW-25 for outright pulling power, or the Ford 9000 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.

WaltannaReference

Dual Power adds a power shift to the basic eight-speed transmission. Two foot buttons control the shift, the left button engages direct drive (normal) mode while the right "power drive" button provides the lower range. The power drive button must be down for stationary PTO work.Reference
