Case-IH JX 65 (A) or John Deere 1950 (A)?

Which should you choose?

The data can’t decide this. Power at the PTO shaft cannot be compared: the JX 65 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft; the 1950 (A) has only engine power (gross or net not stated), claimed — a different quantity from power at the shaft.

Generated by rule set compare@4 from the figures on the side-by-side table, allowed by route “the same stated configuration”. Measured figures are compared only with measured, claimed only with claimed, at the same test condition; differences within each figure’s tolerance are not called.
