The Fendt 500 is really good, they updated it for this game though and a lot more expensive but you can get it with the highest hp out of all the small tractors. I miss the Claas they previously had and you could upgrade it to just over 200 hp, the one they do give you is more or less comparable with a Fendt 300 series. Another of my go-to tractors is the Fendt 700 series which has a lot of bang for the buck. If I had a fleet from just one manufacturer in the game it would be Fendt. Some of the tractors you mentioned would make what I would call support tractors, ie: helpers, like when you're spraying a huge field and the capacity isn't high enough you can use it to bring a trailer of herbicide or you need it with an auger wagon for seeds or fertilizer... you can always use these extra tractors in the game. Yes some of them are a bit slow but they are also very cheap. Me personally in the game I like CVT the best, basically instant power and it doesn't waste time shifting gears, in real life I prefer gears as CVTs are basically junk.
That Fendt you have at #1 is my favorite. I swapped out all of my tractors for a fleet of 5 of these just a couple of days ago. I kept two of the largest Case tractors for "just in case" stuff. 95-99% of my tractor use is that Fendt. Great choice.
Good video. I started on FS2009 Gold and getting the Fendt 614 Favorit [165 HP] Frontloader after selling off the starting equipment would allow me to do everything with one tractor. Not up to FS2025 yet, but there's no harm in looking ahead! 🙂
I like the 8R over the Fendt because the base HP is a bit higher and the max HP is 50hp more, at the cost of 6mph. On a 4x+ straight road map I could see wanting the extra 6mph but on the base maps I'd rather have that bit of extra HP for a bit cheaper. I do agree, avoid the midsize except for the MT600 or the Deutz and just use the money to get a 7r/8r and get more hp for a few more bucks. The smalls I've been avoiding so far, but I've rented the CLAAS 470-410 and the Lindtrac 130 and those are nice, just hard to justify. I wish we had more older 80/90/00/10's model tractors to chose from..
By the time you can afford the Fendt, you've already beaten the game. The 8.31 will be king for a while until we get some crazy good mod hub action for even less money with that kinda power.
Hi Jake! My favorite is the Fendt 1000 in the base game but i use a modded version of it (pc only) with 1000 hp and it goes 60 mph. It's perfect for my need.
Case quad. Ok for big farm play. Never use em. The Challenger ok for a starter but no front lifters. Not a fan of JD cept maybe 600 series. Tracked tractors? Never use em. Rarely if ever used a DF in any game. Fendt usually a good go to with plenty of ponies if need but would go for Case 340 anyway. . However I only use what is with the base farm to start and dump em when I can. My first and only choice is the Case PRO Tuned 306 HP It will pull anything rated up to 320hp. The Lizard 9mtr plough up to 320 hp and the big JD chisel folding plough 300+hp. In 17 I used the Pro 261 hp all the time and from 19 to 22 the Pro 306hp. No other tractors are are used in my play except the little International 150 hp for small jobs like fertilizing tedding and even using 6mtr seeders. With all the options the 306 is well under 160k and the little International 38k. At the moment I dont play 25. I look in daily for map updates but Im not all that happy with the existing maps or the menu system as they are too antiseptic for me and I though I gave it a go I have zero interest in rice!!. I like little Polish /Brit/Irish/East EU maps/farms . So I shall be looking out for the first Brit map from OxyDavid and my beloved Case Pro 306 to drop...Sooon!!
I like the JD 8RT over the center pivot 9R series. That said, I'm now tempted to go look at the Fendt you showed as it does have much better horsepower than the JD.
The self propelled wood chiper have more than a thousand hp. And dual steering. I call it my little locomotive that thing go fast quick lol. I found a hoe (weeder) that when you set it up for 27 meters in the customise menu take minimum 450hp to move
I’m pissed there are no new holland quadtracs or any t9 it’s completely messed up my game because I have built 5 separate farms and have made them to only run one brand at each farm and new holland has only two options for tractors it’s driving me insane
@ yes sir I feel like the base game is just not good for equipment options and it sucks having to Wait for mods then when they do come out it’s junk old tractors that I will never use lol

Maybe just keep it in mind cause if it comes on sale it’d be a steal!
Fendt rules! I use the Fendt 1000 for 90% of my games.
Me too!
I have found the fendt tracked tractor is awesome for mowing, its power, agility and maneouvrability make it my go to machine for big mowing jobs.
AS A FENDT FAN BOY, I APPROVE THIS LIST. FENDT IS THE BEST GREEN TRACTOR AROUND.

Ooooo wish that was on console! 60 mph tractor sounds sick
My big farm uses exclusively the Fendt 1050s. Actually I use the Claas for the big cultivator but nearly everything else.
They had to make the John Deere the economic option in Small Tractors because thats the only thing that makes it attractive.
Can I ask why you chose the 900 series over the 1000? Is it down to cost?

Higher top speed is super nice too
The self propelled wood chiper have more than a thousand hp. And dual steering. I call it my little locomotive that thing go fast quick lol. I found a hoe (weeder) that when you set it up for 27 meters in the customise menu take minimum 450hp to move
For some reason, I like the Case IH steiger 715 quadtrac the most. I know that it is not the most useful one but It is just so silly
Silly is always a good time
Nearly 1k subs!
Fendt 1050 for me
Fendt 1000 better. Cheapest hp per dollar with front 3 pt and fastest.
Also i see femdts in my area being shipped and they truly look so good
Is it just me or does the game seem super low on tractors basegame?
Not just you. Also super low on mods. There’s like 8 viable tractors and that’s crazy low for a farming hame
the Case for 685k is kinda disappointing.
Yea. Pretty much never use it without gov subsidies
When will they update the game cause it is crashing a lot
Do you have a lot of mods? Usually one of those causes it
@ I only have 4 mods but they are not turned on
I can't run tractors that don't let me use US style side markers on US maps. I cannot run EU style nope lol
Fair enough
I’m pissed there are no new holland quadtracs or any t9 it’s completely messed up my game because I have built 5 separate farms and have made them to only run one brand at each farm and new holland has only two options for tractors it’s driving me insane
We need the mods asap. Been like 2 months and there’s 5 tractor mods
@ yes sir I feel like the base game is just not good for equipment options and it sucks having to Wait for mods then when they do come out it’s junk old tractors that I will never use lol
@EarlBraswell5891 seriously! Give me a 1000hp 40 mph tractor already 😂
@@Farmerjakeyt yes I agree the case magnum the 9r deeres from 22 and drop the colossus harvester pack already 🤣
7r jd.
