[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7415939, member: 718"] Maybe. Same size tyres on the back but superior radials on the 5445. Same horsepower but more torque on the 5445. 1200 heavy on the front but probably lighter on the back, with a set of weights on the 5445 balancing it out to a more equal footing. Far stronger rear links with massively greater lift capacity on the 5445 plus a powershift so no traction lost when changing down or up in heavy going. Two or four speed PTO compared with 1000 only. You name it and the 5445 has it beat in all but looks and fuel tank capacity. I honestly think you are looking at these old beasts with rose coloured spectacles. The 1200 would be considered a dull lifeless lump when compared to today's tractors. Especially if you compared it to a 6455 with all the Datatronic traction aids including radar slip control and lower link sensing. I bet a 1990 MF 3090 would run rings around the 1200. Leave it for dust in all conditions. [/QUOTE]
