I have a MF1105 that is 105HP with a turbo and a MF5465 that is 100HP with turbo and the newer engine just seems like it will outwork the older all day. I say it "seems" like it will outwork it because of how smooth it is, they would probably do about the same work.
The computer control on the newer engine just really keep them working exactly where they should be, that new tractor will really put the power out without making the operator feel as if he is taxing the machine.

Basically these new machines are well engineered and will really work, but yes I also worry about the repairs once they get 15 to 20 years old, time will tell.
