What is the operating weight of the Ford 6700 compared with shipping weight?

Published operating weight is 8,510 lb (3,860 kg), versus 6,900 lb (3,130 kg) for shipping weight. That is roughly 1,610 lb (23.3%) more than shipping weight. Operating weight is generally the more useful starting point when estimating a ready-to-use tractor.

How much does the Ford 6700 weigh with ballast?

The published ballasted weight is 9,690 lb (4,395 kg). That is up to 2,790 lb (40.4%) above the lightest published configuration. Ballast can therefore change the practical hauling and ground-pressure picture substantially on this model.

Is the Ford 6700 a lightweight row-crop tractor?

Yes. The representative figure sits at about the 22nd percentile, lighter than roughly 78% of the row-crop tractor peers. That puts it in the light range for this comparison. It is 5,496 lb lighter than the peer-group average of 14,006 lb.

What is the Ford 6700 weight-to-horsepower ratio?

Using the page’s representative 8,510 lb weight and 75.5 hp power figure, the tractor carries about 112.7 lb per horsepower. A lower lb/hp number means less tractor mass for each horsepower; this is a comparison metric, not a traction or performance rating.

How many tons does the Ford 6700 weigh?

The representative published weight is about 4.25 US tons, while the full published range is 3.45–4.84 US tons. Loaded transport weight can be higher than the tractor specification.
