you mow with the BH and FEL attached? Wouldnt that screw up your mowing height setting? as well as the added weight wouldnt that make for some hard turning? It drives me nuts mowing with the FEL on.
On another note.....I got my TZ22DA non sensitrak, FEL, MMM 60, for 14000 out the door in spring of 05...thought it was a good deal, however not impressed with my dealers service..I do my own maitenance, and it runs like a champ! You wont go wrong with this machine, in my mind it was the best choice.

the bars really dig in with the loader on, add bucket full of...whatever with some weight, and it gets worse, add 4x4, which I usually run with the FEL on anyways...and you will see a route that you have taken escpecially with turns...however....
with the FEL removed, and just finish mowing my 4 acres, the hardly dig in at all, I had my concerns at first, but they have been easy when mowing, I also dont have a victory lawn..(its decent), some soft spots too...and surprisingly they dont tear it up. You might just be best to chain up and save a few buck as opposed to buying a set of bars.....just depends on what you are gonna do...

Ahhh...yes....I had time to acutually make it to the NH dealer and have a chat with my service guy. He stated the same thing you did about the tires.
He also told me that these TZ's hydraulics are not designed to stay in the up postion (locked) while the unit is off. He said that that it 3pt and mid will fall over time...which is fine, I just thought there was something wrong. All other hydraulic equipment I have ever dealt with has always stayed in its left position when left for a period of time.
I will check out the tires and see if that is the culprit of my lean. I sure hope so and not a bent frame. I have not done anything severe enough to warrant frame bending, besides it has had this lean since I have gotten it, as previously mentioned. Overall I am happy with this unit...just want to get it levlled!! Thanks again!

yeah, I noticed that filter being right there on the bottom, and thought that it was a dumb place for that....very crucial filter, in a vulnerable place. I have already been scheming a way to fabricate a skid plate to put up there that wont look silly. I might run it down the road to a near by station, just so happens they are probably one of the only stations within 10 mile radius or so that sell red dye diesel (off road). Dealer has on road, but didnt fill it up for me....kinda stunk that they didnt, but that meant that I could put in the red dye instead and keep it that way, cheaper too!
HOnestly, your detaile message and pics that you sent were the determining factor in the decision of the TZ purchase. As I had stated before, what you are doing with yours is a carbon copy of what I will be doing with mine for the most part. As well, they had been sitting on this unit for some time, and wanted to move it...thought the price was right.
I thank you greatly!

Hmmmmmm..As goes for the reply on the Kioti's you would be correct on them being Daedong! Therefore the dealer gave me bad info. Oh well...no biggie.....I wont be going with them. It will be blue...waiting on a quote from another dealer, hopefully will have all said and done by Christmas.....we will see.....

I might also add that the TC33 that was speced for me was Hydro, and had SuperSteer with sensitrack as well...which I know adds a chunk to the price....forgot to add on previous post.....

IMHO, go with the 30....I have been pricing the 24, 26, and TC33DA's with a similar setup, and price for power and capability the 30, or the 33 are the way to go. I have driven the 33, and I know that I will have no trouble putting that thing right next to my house for finish mowing, on top of that, it will be a rear finish. I have done quite a bit of shopping and comparing.........just my opinion, but for the price, the 24 and 26 with attachments are a waste of money, in the short and long term....dont get me wrong; nice equipment, for a little more $$$ you get a lot more tractor over all with a minimal physical size increase.....just something to think about.
Good luck

If you are referring to the first post, that my my bad....I looked at the invoice again from the dealer, and I didnt when I put on the message, and it was for a leftover 2004 DX24E, not DX24....which as you may know if the same as TZ....I will need TC for ground clearance issues for the woods...I have ruled out the mowers on steroids at this point....Good price however, just wont suit my needs....

That is what my intent here is to do...I want to give the local dealer a fair chance as they have been really fair with me and are concerned of how you will view them after the sale. They should be considered first, however when you are looking to buy a tool for more than you have ever paid for a car, I would hope they would treat you fairly, especially when you will have this for the next "x" amount of years. After reading posts on here, I cant believe how some dealer treat customers if they bought elsewhere. I can understand their being upset, but from the sounds of it, they basically tell some people to pound salt! The local dealer will most likely get my business. I know they will not sell for a loss, and I dont expect them too. Its no rocket science if you sell under cost you wont last long, however we are talking about a possible $3000.00 price difference of their quote to me, to what others paid for similar set up that I am looking at.
I have sent some emails to other dealers, and we will see what they quote. I not looking for a steal, just fair price which has not come my way yet.....thats all.
Thank you all for your input on these matters for all are good points, and you are right, it is not like going to the car dealer!!

I inquired into this as well, and my NH dealer said that if you have 1, to 1.5 acres of leaves or grass, they it might be ok, other than that, he said to get a tow behind with a vac on it. I will have a serious issue with leaves in the fall, the grass stays or I would be raking for a week....
