[QUOTE="Popcorn, post: 5412791, member: 20151"] I grew up on 2wd tractors up to 110 hp. Back then nobody had 4wd tractors that i am aware of and we did fine. I currently own a Massey Ferguson 451 2wd, small HD 45hp with a front end loader and I work the tar out of it. It does almost everything I ask it to do but I do find myself short on traction at times. Having a 4wd would solve that issue. You have to be doing some pretty big work for a 45hp 4wd to not handle it. On the gearbox issue I prefer a bigger rating than my tractors potential output. I would rather an event stall the engine or break a universal joint than destroy the gearbox. Know that their is a big difference in tractor duty ratings. A 45hp heavy duty is worth more in life, wear, capability than a 65hp light duty [/QUOTE]
