Some owners do report that the 6445 can feel underpowered in certain conditions, especially under heavy load or when pulling away with a trailer. In many cases, this comes down to injector condition, fuel system issues, engine setup, or simply asking too much from a 95 hp tractor.

Is the MF 6445 suitable for heavy trailer work?
