When you purchase a Vehicle, a fuel tank icon will appear at the bottom of the screen, just above the Friend Ladder. There is only 1 fuel tank that is shared by all vehicles. This means that if you have a tractor, harvester, and seeder, your vehicles will still share 1 fuel tank.



The fuel tank holds 150 units of fuel. Each unit can be applied to 1 plot of land. This means you can plow 150 plots of land with 1 fuel tank. If you run out of fuel, you can either wait for your fuel tank to refill or you can purchase fuel refills from the Market under the Vehicles Tab. Fuel refills are available for purchase only with Farm Cash. Keep in mind that unlike the original fuel tank that came with your tractor, the fuel refills that you purchase do not refill once used.



If you choose to wait for your fuel to refill, you can hover your mouse over the fuel tank icon to watch its progress. There is a countdown timer for each unit of fuel that is refilled. It takes up to 6 hours for the tank to completely refill from empty.

The FarmVille Tractor allows you to plow four squares at once. You also don’t have to wait for your person walk to the squares in order to do it, like you do when you plow normally. You earn the same number of experience points (one per square) and it costs the same (15 coins per square). The only difference is you earn four experience points at a time and it deducts sixty coins at a time.

One major drawback is that the tractor uses gas. When you buy the tractor, it comes with plenty of fuel. I believe it takes one fuel to plow each square, but I’m not entirely sure. When you run out, you can either buy more gas from the market, but that costs Farmville dollars, which you have to buy with real world money. The other option is to just wait. Every two and a half minutes the game will give you a small amount of more fuel.

At a cost of 30,000 coins, the FarmVille Tractor will allow you to plow a 2×2 section at a time as opposed to a
single plot at a time without the Tractor.
As with most items in the game, buying them rewards you with XP.
The FarmVille Tractor does not help you harvest or plant your crops. All it does is help you plow the fields.
It appears to give 300XP when purchased.

Using Decorations to Get to the Next Level in FarmVille

There are a few decorations that have a high XP when purchasing them. Then there are some that have a lower XP but cost less and are worth purchasing for the XPs. If you are
looking to level up on FarmVille and have coins to spare, read the following tips.

FarmVille Tip – Leveling Up With Hay Bales

If you need 100 or so points to level up, hay bales would be the way to go. Hay bales only cost 100 coins in FarmVille and you will get 5 XPs for each hay bale you purchase. So, in order to get your 100 XPs, you would need to purchase 20 hay bales. 20 hay bales at 100 coins each would put you at spending 2,000 coins.

FarmVille Tip – Leveling Up with Larger Items

If you need more than 100 XPs and do not want to purchase all of those hay bales, you may want to consider going with the larger items. The larger items will cost you a bit more, but you won’t have hay bales every where. If you are purchasing items just to level up, make sure that you have plenty of money to blow. If you do not have money to blow, simply plow, plant, harvest, and visit neighbors to level up. Below you will find some of the larger decoration items that will earn you high amounts of XPs.

Tractor, Harvester, & Seeder

All three of the vehicles will give you 300 XPs each when you purchase them. Each vehicle will cost you 30,000 coins. If you purchase a tractor, you will pay 30,000 coins and get 300 XPs. Same with the others. So, if you purchase all three, you will spend 90,000 coins and get 900 XPs.

Small Pond

The small pond will cost you 5,000 coins and you will receive 50 XPs. So, if you need to level up by 50 or so XPs and don’t want to buy a lot of hay bales, you could purchase a pond to place on your farm. However, you would save money by purchasing hay bales instead of the small pond.

Barrel Wagon

The Barrel Wagon will give you 40 XPs when you purchase it. The cost of the Barrel Wagon is 4,000 coins. Again, buying the hay bales would be a lot cheaper than purchasing a Barrel Wagon just to level up. You could purchase 8 hay bales to get the same amount of XPs as the barrel wagon.

Step 1. Buy the tractor from the market, in a section located under the new "Tractor" tab.

Step 2. Place the tractor on your farm.

Step 3. Notice the fuel meter in the lower left-hand corner. It will decrease as you use fuel to tractor plow.

Step 4. Select the tractor icon from your menu by clicking on the plow tool and then selecting the tractor option.

Step 5. Plow the land by placing your pointer/arrow into the middle of a plot of land (a 2x2 grid) and click, as you normally do.
