Ford FW-30 vs Ford FW-60
Verdict: Ford FW-30 vs Ford FW-60
The Ford FW-30 and the Ford FW-60 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Ford FW-60 leads on rated power with 335 hp against 265 hp. Ford FW-60 is the lighter machine (14,106 kg vs 14,202 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
