Tractor Data is the place to go.

 

Basically for the new ones:

A series (like the one in my picture) are tiny little things upto 100hp. You can't put a crane on the roof as they're too small.

N series more electrical gubbins a much larger heavier tractor but not massive form 101hp to 150.

T are the big ones going upto about 200hp now.

 

The little A series are great for little jobs but trust me you don't want to use it for any length of time as the cab is very small. N series is the best of both worlds between physical size and hp.

 

Personally i'd have a T130, it's not massive. at 130hp it will run most chippers relativly well. Heavy enough to take a roof mount crane and a big winch.

I would personally try to find a low hours older model 8200/8150/8350/6650 etc rather than the newer models. The older ones are better suited to the forestry job, with less electrics, better guarding underneath and enclosed fuel tanks in the chassis instead of a great big plastic tank to break etc.

Newer valtras seem to be more focused on agriculture than forestry imo :001_smile:
