There is 8 hp difference at the drawbar, which may sound like no big difference but when you consider it is well over a 10% difference, it becomes important. The bigger difference in my opinion is that the D14 weighs about 1000 pounds more. It can make use of its hp better because of this weight. The D12 seems to be quite popular with collectors, but there are lots of D14s still earning their keep by working. Be sure and check the transmission carefully. Some of these tractors tend to jump out of gear and this can make them both unsafe and practically unusable. The repair can also equal the value of the tractor. After you know that the tractor brakes work well, run the tractor down hill in each gear with the throttle open and then quickly shift the Power Director from the high side to the low side. This will cause engine braking and will put the load on the back side of the gears. Typically if the transmission is warn too much this is when you can get her to show you that by jumping out of gear. If she turns out to be a jumper, revisit the cost. You could put a couple thousand into a full transmission overhaul and a good D14 shouldn`t cost you much more that that to begin with. Maybe $2500 with a good loader.
