The 4708 and 5709 come with standard or essential layouts, letting you choose between cost-efficiency and additional tools or features. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the real standout for Massey is the 3700 series. The MF 3700 models each come in different versions, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vineyard<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Special<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fruit<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ground Effect<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wide Fruit<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These unique designs make them a perfect choice for niche situations where standard tractors are too wide and may cause damage to crops. The 3707 is available in all of the configurations above, making it a great all-around choice for farms and orchards.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Case IH<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this bracket, Case IH only offers 2 models, the Farmall 75C and 95C. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not to be outdone by its little brother, the Case IH 95C has more in common with the 105C and 115C then the 75C. With 99 gross hp and Tier 4A compliance, the 95C gives you more bang for your buck. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The 75C weighs in at 2,800kg standard, and the 95C at 3,600kg, making the 75C a better choice where excess weight could cause damage to turf, crops or property.
