well guys CT235 is 35HP right or is it 34? why does the spec read interim tier 4 diesel 34HP, I think I am getting rid of my CT225 for a larger unit but do not want to go through the same HP rating issue the 225 faced so whats up?

My CT450 is 49hp when its listed as 50hp, no biggie to me. Buy more than what you need. Ive ran almost all the CT tractors one time or another and I have to say the C235 is a nice unit, power to weight wise. Its the biggest 2 series hp. The 335 is like 38hp but I doubt would out work the 235 hp wise but then again what a tractor can do has little to do with hp as much as gearing and tractor weight. So a well balanced tractor is what I looked for.

Go drive them all and make yr decision based on what you feel and like not what someone posted in the brochure.

I like the size of the 2 series, and now my 235 is almost ready to turn over 100 hours (in less than 3 months) It is strong, my complaints about now poer in high range has disappeared, it will go up hills in high that it would not think about goung up before.

I am very pleased with the 235, nimble yet strong
