Fuel Consumption

[Robert M]

Can anybody suggest a website where you can get information to compare fuel consumption of different tractors. The tractors I am looking at in the 90 HP category (Daedong DK90C, McCormick CX90, MF 4255) use 4.4 litre Perkins engines so I guess fuel consumption would mainly be determined by weight of each tractor. The other tractors I'm looking at are Case IH 5120 and New Holland TD90 both around 90 HP and 3.9 litres.

Any general comments about fuel consumption from people's own experience would be welcomed.

cheers
Robert
