I put my deposit down on a New Holland 1725 with deluxe hitch and folding ROP at the sale price of $12,000. This is 4wd, manual transmission, no supersteer. I thought I had a good tractor at a very good price, and I probably did. I found this message board and read about some problems with the 1725, so I went back to the dealer. He checked and there was a campaign to fix some 1630, 1725, and 1925 models with suspect low engine horsepower. The solution is to dyno the PTO horsepower and make a fuel adjustment if necessary. My 1725 was probably not affected. The dealer told me I really wouldn't want it anyway when he learned of my plan to use a rear snowblower to clear a 525 ft drive in snow country because the 1725 does not have a live PTO. Between that and the potential problem with the 1725 engine, which was in fact redesigned for the TC29 and is known to burn cleaner as a result, I opted for a TC29D with supersteer that he had on the lot. This has hydrostatic transmission and all of those creature comforts the deluxe versions have, as well as folding ROP and deluxe 3pt hitch. I paid $14,445 for this tractor. Ended up paying more than I planned, but I expect to be glad I did, someday! Hoping my story helps someone else in the same quandry.
