I just want to say 'Thank You' to all of you on the forum! I really got a lot of good feedback and advice when buying my NH TC40DA.
So I have a $1000 dollar deposit on a 2012 NH T4.75 with a 655TL loader (open station) 240 some hours! I'm probably one of the few that specifically does not want a cab, lol... I'm buying from Mast Tractor sales in Ohio & there is the potentiality of my showing up there w/ truck and trailer and being 'wow-ed' by a similar orange or green paint in that 75hp range etc... I'm replacing a 2015 JD 5065e tractor that I recently purchased from them - burnt to a crisp in a barn fire.
- I did not like the visibility over the hood w/ all the TierIV emissions on the JD 5065e....
- I did not like the weight of the tractor in general on the 5065e... (felt like a 'hobby farmer') tractor compared to my JD 5425... (tires loaded w/ double wheel weights)
I'm a little apprehensive of the NH 655TL loader just not measuring up to what I just lost w/ the h240 JD loader. (any anecdotal thoughts on that matter)... ? I know that it sits a little lower for visibility etc.
- I am going to be wanting to add a WR Long 3rd function... do you thing that I should have them do it there in Ohio... ? They are putting in a block heater for me at $350 extra. Also specified is a 84" bucket as 6' just will not do...
Thanks All for your pondering my query...
