Which should you choose?

We will not advise between these two machines, because the drive differs (Tracks; 4WD); the 8220 T is on tracks, not an alternative to an ordinary tractor. The figures below are side by side so you can judge them yourself; each says whether it was measured, claimed or declared by its source.
