Frankly that's way too high. The price should be around $15K for that package. That's not a lot less than I ended up paying for my 3045.

The rumor is a litle more updated. The new loader will not fit the current TC33. NH is revising the TC33 to a new model and adding the 14LA or 15LA loader along with some other features. Look for it about the first of the year along with other revisions in the lineup.

With your size property, I would not look at anything smaller than the TC40D. The TC33 would be great if you also owned a utility tractor, but the 33 would be overwhelmed on your land. I have a tractor similar to a TC40 for my 20 acres and would have nothing less.

Dave, the CCM is built like an anvil. I would just buy a few extra blades when I buy the machine. As long as the shipping is reasonable, I think you would be way ahead.

I think you answered your own question when you said it was a King Kutter. They are made for a price. Some people love them and they stand up well in some circumstances. For the most part, you get what you pay for.

Of those two, Land Pride is the better made unit. If you want quality, Woods, Befco, Bush Hog and Servis Rhino also make excellent units. The Midwest line, is a superb value if you can find a dealer. There are many others including some Italian models that are well made and reasonable.

I occasionally tow my car trailer with my friends '96 2500 4WD Cummins. I have used a 4" drop and the trailer rides level, same drop as our 2500 Suburban. Must be the way the trailer is made, I sure haven't had the problem.

One of the dealers that rings in here might know for sure, but my understanding is the countdown is down to days now. Certainly close enough to wait and look.

I am taking a wild guess here, but I would suspect that Kubota sells about 60% hydro, 30% GST and 10% gear. I would rethink the hydro. If you still decide against it - I would go for the GST. Not as easy to use as the hydro but better than gear. The Century is one heck of a tractor, I'm surprised at the price, kinda high for a 2535. I just purchased a 3045 that should be delivered soon. Your prices for the Kubota are very good. You don't mention the loader model, I think 723 is the one you should be getting.
Good Luck

I don't know where in NY you are, but I got my best price by far on JD at KC Canary in Fultonville NY. Check with Mark - great people. If you can afford 8 large a year, the zero % is a good deal.

I would also check out the Salsco line, The 824 will work great with your tractor and the factory isn't far, in CT.

I think you will be extremely pleased with your purchase. Curious after you get some experience the difference between the Branson and your NH. I know there's more power and weight, but how much more capable is it?

Then I guess Chief & I are making the correct recommendation, just depends on the budget. I know what that's about. I would have loved a 4610/hydro but couldn't afford it. I ended up with a Century 3045. Same 48 HP Yanmar four diesel engine as the 4710, 12x12 shuttle, but about $7K less. In most cases getting the most power in a frame size that is suitable for your needs is the best option. There are exceptions. The JD 4410 is priced much higher than the 4310, same with Kubota 3130 and 3430 for a limited benefit. So many trade up, yet have you ever heard of someone trading a 4710 for a 4510 because they had too much power or didn't want the hydro? JMHO

Virgil, all is fine with Kioti. They DO have a reputation for leaking loader cylinders. In the era of computer communications, a small problem can be percieved as a big one. If 1 in 100 leak , it will seem like a major EPA disaster on the web. The good news is that I haven't detected any other common problems with Kioti in my computer travels. If anyone shys away from a Kioti for that reason, they are making a big mistake.

The problem with the Kubota L2600 is the PTO is transmission driven. A live or independent PTO are much easier to work with. The L3000 isn't much more and really a better value. Your area is ripe with dealers. I would check the respective web sites and use the dealer locator feature. I would at least LOOK at the others before making a decision.
