FORD-NEW HOLLAND 2810 TIRES
The Ford-New Holland 2810 tractor's 2WD configuration provides better fuel efficiency and a simpler maintenance profile, making it suitable for light agricultural tasks on dry, well-drained surfaces. In contrast, the 4WD setup enhances traction and stability on uneven terrain and during adverse weather, making it ideal for heavier jobs and muddy conditions. However, the 4WD may incur higher operational costs and complexity in maintenance, so choose based on your specific field conditions and workload requirements.
