    tires vs tracks

    Looking at buying a 450 hp tractor. Wondering what differences there are in performance (traction,fuel consumption, power, smothness of ride etc) between a wheeled tractor and tracks especially the CaseIh quad trac? Does it take more power to drive a track unit vs tires?

    Have a look at this website document, put out by Alberta Ag:
    http://www1.agric.gov.ab.ca/$department/deptdocs.nsf/all/eng5243

    It won't answer all of your questions, but it should help with some...
