Liar Liar...

Paul,

Let her drive the 3010 HST and you will suddendly own a tractor that she will enjoy, too. Let her drive a TC18 without power steering first, though.

It looks like I need to get another tractor too, or two. I bought my JD5210 in Feb. and it now has 129 hours on it. My son and his wife, who share our 40 acres, and my wife have put about 125 of those hours on it. My wife will get on it and bushhog. When there are only a couple of rounds left she will ask me if I want to finish. She is so considerate /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif. My son is also. Yesterday I got a new box blade and he let me use it first! They also let me make the payments.

Wen/Paul,

Be very careful here...IF you let her drive a TC18, you'd NEVER get her on one of those Orange things! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Well, maybe not, but now you're betting on the fact that she's got some sense of propriety about embarassing her husband by outworking him! And that's definitely going against the odd's! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

Mark, I wouldn't play those odds with my better half....She's s more than stuburn enough to try... Mabye when we buy one,I should install one of those hidden switchs mention else ware and tell her it's just tricky to start/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif...Tell her it's a common problem with tractors..Ya'll think the dealer would back me???/w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gifSome one mentioned getting her on an L series...I would but its a bit more than I need and can pay for...I've been looking at the TC21D and the B2410 HST models 4x4 with pwr stearing and a loader...I Plan on taking her to a couple of dealers this saterday and see what she thinks...Ya'll keep your fingers crossed and mabye your toes too.......

I noticed that the models are better looking on the NH brochures.

Wen,
They need those good looking girls to sell the tractor! Thats why Kubota shows a man on the tractor, because the tractor sells it self. They don't need sex to sell their line. Sorry JimBinMI but someone was bound to say it!

If you put one of those hidden switches on, make sure it's the one in series with the safety starter interlock switches, so she can't run the battery down trying to start it.

As for the dealer going along, he might, but you'd better sign the check, or you can forget it!

How soon are you buying? Are you leaning toward one model over the other?

Good left jab, right hook combination there, Von!

On the subject of brochures, I've requested them from NH's web site several times and never seen a thing. It makes me wonder...
