Ford FW-25 vs Ford TW-15

Verdict: Ford FW-25 vs Ford TW-15

The Ford FW-25 and the Ford TW-15 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford TW-15 leads on rated power with 140 hp against 135 hp. Ford FW-25 is the lighter machine (9,200 kg vs 11,355 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 1983). In short: choose the Ford TW-15 for outright pulling power, or the Ford FW-25 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
