White 185 vs White 8710
Verdict: White 185 vs White 8710
The White 185 and the White 8710 are both tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. White 8710 leads on rated power with 204 hp against 188 hp. White 185 is the lighter machine (13,600 kg vs 18,800 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. White 8710 is the newer design (1998 vs 1986). In short: choose the White 8710 for outright pulling power, or the White 185 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
