Two Year Review on the Massey Ferguson 2605H

[@Michael-dd7sp]

Thanks for the review. I’ve been thinking of something similar to replace my MF 175 loader tractor.

175s are great but this is really an upgrade - a joy to operate

Thank you for this review as there isn't enough content on this 2600h series.

Where did you find those wheel weights? How much were they?

[@rbyq6398]

Great tractor! I have one exactly like it. 2022 2605h

[@froghairfarm]

It’s fantastic, love mine

Great videos, excellent tractor, reminds me of the ones that my dad had around the farm. Curious to know if you fill the 2605H with the #2 red-dyed (cheaper) or regular vehicle diesel?

[@froghairfarm]

Thanks! I appreciate the compliment. It is a great tractor and I use off-road Diesel (red), fortunately I have a station that sells small quanities. I have used both though and the only difference is taxes.

I guess I must've missed it in the video, but what are the brand, size/model, and weight of the wheel weights? I have a 2606H and I'm considering some weights. Thanks in advance.

I bought them from Taylor Foundry in TX. I don't recall the model #, but you can find them on their site. They ar e 150# each, two each side for me and that seems to be working great.

Thanks! I looking to upgrade from my '06 1540, and have been going back and forth between the H series and a 2850E. While I love my 1540, I need more lifting capacity. The H series just seem more "tractor-like" than the design of the compacts.

[@froghairfarm]

@garytitus8298 - I also have a 1840E, there is no comparison when it comes to robustness. The 2605 is larger for sure, but it is built far heavier. There's a big difference in lifting capability and feeling safe. It really depends on how you'll use it. If I had to select one to keep and one to go, I'd hang onto the 2605 in my case. I haven't looked at the 2850, so I can't comment there. The 2605 is more suited for agricultural work (if you do any) and really doesn't give anything up otherwise unless you want a hydro trans, which you cannot get on the 2605.
