White R-50 vs White R-86

Verdict: White R-50 vs White R-86

The White R-50 and the White R-86 are both lawn tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. White R-86 leads on rated power with 8 hp against 5 hp. White R-50 is the lighter machine (88 kg vs 164 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. White R-86 is the newer design (1985 vs 1975). In short: choose the White R-86 for outright pulling power, or the White R-50 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
