[QUOTE="Cowabunga, post: 7416045, member: 718"] My neighbour had a County 100 Super 6 then a 1174 and then a Ford 8210, each newer one better than the last . There was nothing special about the County's and some time ago he was saying that he has a very steep rocky gradient to pull a tanker from the slurry pit. With the 1174 and even the longer wheelbase 8210, which gave him an advantage, he would often run out of torque or lose traction pulling up that gradient and would need to choose a lower gear and scream up there to have enough momentum for traction and power. He was amazed that his four cylinder MF6470 would cruise up the same gradient with no issue or drama whatsoever. The 6470 basically has the same chassis as the 5445 of course and probably weighs not more than 300kgs more with the greatest weight difference coming from the 600/65-r38 wheels and tyres rather than the 16.9 42085r34, the latter which are the same size as fitted to the County 1174.
