I've got both and both have been here since new by my grandfather. I'd say the 88 has more practical power and is easier to operate/handle. I like both but would give the 88 the edge. The hydraulics on the M are quicker but is negated due to the belly pump going through the clutch. It would be interesting for me to pull a 3 bottom plow with each as sort of a direct comparison which I never got to do before. Back in the day when the cows were here the 88 would get barrel manure spreader duty and the M would get forage blower duty then I would make my best guess as to true power based on power requirements listed in the manual for each implement. The engine in the 88 is fresher versus the M. Both need a little TLC plus the rear tires are not in the best condition anymore so a head to head test will have to wait.

That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
