Massey Ferguson 50D vs Massey Ferguson 60
Verdict: Massey Ferguson 50D vs Massey Ferguson 60
The Massey Ferguson 50D and the Massey Ferguson 60 are both backhoe loaders — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. Massey Ferguson 60 leads on rated power with 73 hp against 68 hp. Massey Ferguson 60 is the lighter machine (6,350 kg vs 12,050 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work.
