tc30 prices

brianMO · May 3, 2006

I just got a quote for a brand new tc30 with FEL. This is not hydrastat. I am trading a fair condition ford 1100 with an rm59 finish mower.

$13,800 for tractor and loader
trade-in $1800 for tractor, and $200 for mower.

$11,800 with trade-in

Will I get hurt badly on this. It is a 4-wheel drive with r4 tires. No rear hydraulics, or mid-PTO.

Sounds like a decent price on the tractor, up here in Portland OR, I was quoted $13,995 for a nursery lease return (about 200hrs) TC30 gear with new FEL.
I went for the HST for $14,995, plus $300 to fill tires, and $1,000 for 5' Land Pride rotary cutter. I didn't bargan much because it's not my style and I really feel good about the level of service I'll get from this dealer.
Expecting delivery sometime this week.

I got it at Metro New Holland in North Plains.

Sales guy was Mike Haines, a really nice guy. He delivered the tractor to my house and spent over an hour going over stuff with me.
Found a couple of minor issues and he immediately called the shop to get somebody to come up and fix them (this was Friday afternoon and they haven't come up yet but I expect them some time this week).

I'd delt with Metro's service manager a couple of times before with a previous tractor and I've always been impressed with him and thats a big reason why I went with them for this tractor.

Used the tractor a bunch this weekend to help my neighbor finish off a large french drain and was very happy with it.

Had my first "Oh s**t" moment when I lost traction going down a wet grassy hill with a bucket load of dirt.
For a sec I thought was going down a 1000 ft steep bluff but I just dropped the bucket and she stopped. After that I put it in 4 wheel drive low and stayed away from that hill and things were fine.

Sounds Like a good deal. I know the AZ market is really high in prices but thats because we don't sell many tractors just for cutting grass. We sell maybe 2-4 tractors a month.
