As the design engineering manager for these tractors, it's going to be interesting to see the answers to this question!!!

8050 because it has a heavy rearend like the 8070, 2 speed pto like the 8030 and can be cranked up to the power of the 8070.

Kinda hard too compare they are all similar but I think the 8010 is a little too big a tractor for the 301 engine.....Really like my 8030 FWA PS but I don't do any row crops just cattle & hay. FWA and Powershift are the strongest points of the 8000 series!!!
