When you factor in power, economy, user-friendliness, reliability, weight, ect. Which unit, comes out on top??
Or, if you could have one unit, BRAND NEW off the line, what would you pick??
Obviously, modern units are more ergonomic, and are easier to operate, but I have one older, and one newer unit, that I think bests them all.
1st, I would pick the Massey Ferguson 150. Not only is it a great looking unit,but they seem un-bogable. When you think the engine is about to bog down, it just keeps pulling. Great powerplant, and sledgehammer reliable.
For a more modern pick, I would have to do with the Yanmar 336d.
WOOT! Shuttle shift, suckers! Another great powerplant, ultra-low creeper gear, good weight, tight turning radius, great 4wd setup, shares tons of parts with the JD 850/950s
. In my opinion, the best mix of an older unit, and modern tech.
