I'm trying to learn about the relationship between Shibaura and New Holland, e.g. TC-33DA "Boomer" tractor.<br>

Does Shibaura have a website?

Thanks all for your helpful comments. This tractor sold quickly for the asking price of $4000.

I will replace it for mowing, snow plowing, and to assist in fall leaf pickup with either a Kub. L3130 or a NH TC-33DA.

Any thoughts as to which you would select? I like the smaller size of the TC-33, tighter turning radius (not SSteer) and I seem to prefer the plastic body panels rather than Kub's more easily dented sheet metal. Does that make sense? Any experience here?

For mowing I will use my 5' bush hog or perhaps a 3PH finish mower for about 8 acres of rough grass on fairly smooth ground with some mild grades at about 3 week intervals. For the 1200' paved driveway I will start using my back blade, and possibly upgrade to a front mount blade or snow blower in the future.

I propose to use Titan Turf tires.

Regards,
