White R-50 vs White T-802

Verdict: White R-50 vs White T-802

The White R-50 and the White T-802 are both lawn tractors — here is how they stack up on the figures that matter. White T-802 leads on rated power with 8 hp against 5 hp. White R-50 is the lighter machine (88 kg vs 158 kg), which helps on soft ground and transport, while the heavier model carries more ballast for traction-limited draft work. White T-802 is the newer design (1977 vs 1975). In short: choose the White T-802 for outright pulling power, or the White R-50 if a tighter budget and lighter footprint matter more.
