Comparison The new LS / New Hollands are around

[joes_427_vette]

Looks like NH went off and made a cheaper version of the LS and McCormick CT units. I guess taking off the rear remotes and the 3 point draft control as standard features is to put more money in NH bottom numbers.

What's going to be interesting is seeing what McCormick is going to do... The inside talk is going strong about it. I guess that is why I was able to drop some units by $2K.

My TC 55 came with a draft control but the rear remotes were not standard unless I paid double for them. Each remote was priced seperately.

and your are starting to see what i am saying you should speak on the facts but most people dont but the should not argue with some one that is speaking the facts its crazy and that goes to where a tractor is made it really doesn't matter where u was told it was made that does make it better are who it was made by is all does make it better everybody likes what they like in their on opinion not really based on the facts and thats good for them but dont critize to next man or woman for what they choose

and the facts are u buy what u wont not nessecarly what u need or can afford

Cool, I guess that settles it. I say "live and let live".

JC,

Well guys you can all bash LS as much as you please but truth is lots of the tractors you are driving or talking about were made by LS. Not withstanding JD and Kubota, I think I have seen at least every other brand mentioned that LS made one or more of their models.
Personally, I looked at every brand out there and did not find one including JD and Kubota that had the quality and standard features of the LS tractors that I was looking at. After spending months looking and hours searching the internet, I purchased the best looking, most comfortable ergonomically built tractor with the most features that I wanted for the least price. It has features that are useful not just for show that are not even available on other brands.
That is a P 7010C in the photo.

Nice tractor!:thumbsup: There are a lot to choose from and I have to say I they all look pretty good. LS make some nice lookin tractors and should do fine as a rebranded NH.

Thank for the compliment on the LS. It truely does seem to be a well built tractor with all the equipment I thought I would need as standard. Even my dealer stated that he couldnt understand why most brands dont come with remote hydraulics. He said the over 90% of the cost to add is taking things off the tractor in order to get to them. The only cost at the factory is the valves themselves and a small amount of labor to install. True some of the features could have been placed a little better, but overall, I like the position and draft control (standard) 3 remotes standard, tilt wheel std, shuttle shift std. and I love the AC cab which was the main reason for buying a new tractor. I dont have a problem with other buying what fits them best, that is the American way at least for now, we still have that choice. Some folks buy color only which is OK too. It is their choice to do, but no one can predict what the future of dealers or brands will be 10 or 30 years from now.

Going to go and look if any have cabs.

None of the LS/New Holland tractors have the cab option. They are just now coming to the dealers. The dealer had to order 12 to any but he has the option to transfer units out to other dealers. Our local dealer has just got some in and is waiting thru the holidays to setup.
