Here. I thought of this after I made my post.
This is me plowing my garden on two different years. One year with my 1811. Another year with my 1050. Obvious differences are that one machine is an 18hp twin cylinder hydro, the other is a worn out Mag 10 single with a gear drive.
Same weights, same operator, same soil, same plow, same style tractor.... different tires, different trans and different engines. The 1811 had a set of 6.50 all terrrains from a 71, and the 1050 had 10.50 lugs. Note that the 1811 had no issue with the smaller tires. I like that when I was using the 1050 I had the hands available to hold on because I chiseled the garden that fall and it was beating me to death plowing. Only comparison I'd like to do that I think would be more fair than this one is with like a 124 and a 125. That way the ONLY difference would be that one was gear and one was hydro.
